Beatrice Rana performs four of Bach’s keyboard concertos (BWV 1052 in D minor, 1053 in E, 1054 in D, and 1056 in F minor) in a new recording with the Amsterdam Sinfonietta. The internationally acclaimed Italian pianist describes Bach as “an important figure in my life … My piano studies began when I was very young, and Bach was there from the very start.” For Rana, part of the genius of Bach’s music lies in the way it “transcends its era and the musical technologies of its time and still feels modern to listeners today.” The recording follows Rana’s 2022 tour of the concertos with the Amsterdam Sinfonietta performed without a conductor. “As we played, the concerto for soloist and orchestra simply became an extension of chamber music.”
