Soprano Jeanne Pascale Schmidt sings selected works from the Bach-Schemelli songbook and Bach's cantatas. The arias and solo harpsichord works accompanied on the harpsichord form a contrast to texts, all of which deal with Bach's life and work as a musician and composer, but also focus on his activities as an organ expert.
There are only a few surviving writings by Bach himself, but all the more about Bach, for example by writers such as Albrecht Goes, Oskar Loerke and fellow musicians such as Johannes Brahms and Paul Hindemith.
Eduard Steinbügl offers samples from the "Ersten Teil der Clavier-Übung" and from the "Wohltemperierten Klavier", as well as some works for organ, which unfold a special charm on the small baroque organ in mean-tone tuning (6 stops, I/pedal).
