Bach, J S: The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 2
Jill Crossland (piano)
At its best, Crossland's Bach is intimately scaled and sensitively nuanced, abetted by engineering that reproduces her dulcet sonority in the loveliest light.

About
Proving that Jill Crossland "well deserves her enviable reputation as a Bach pianist", BBC Music Magazine, this superb recording of Bach's Well-tempered Clavier, colloquially known as the '48' from the two books of 24 preludes and fugues, completes her foray into one of the great landmarks of keyboard repertoire. Jill Crossland studied at Chethams School of Music and the Royal Northern College of Music with Ryszard Bakst, and in Vienna with Paul Badura-Skoda and Sally Sargent. She performed the complete Well-tempered Clavier from memory as a student in Manchester and has always been closely associated with the work.
