Description:

Steyer's Further Boundaries of the Mean Laws, Volume 1 is now available! Steyr's performance of Bach's mean rules, volume 1 is now available! Volume 2 was previously recorded (2020) and released (KKC 6440/HMM 902682) to worldwide acclaim. In the preface to the first volume of the Mean Clavier cycle, Bach writes, "...for the benefit of young people who are eager to learn music, and for those who have already mastered this study, as an exceptional diversion..." Steyer is the latter of Bach's words. Steyer is the latter of Bach's words, and one can feel that he himself enjoys playing the music as if he were singing. The skillful choice of tones for each piece and the variety of tones are also astonishing. From the simple Prelude No. 1 to the furious and powerful Prelude No. 2, various new worlds are developed as the collection progresses. It is as if Steyer is guiding us through the great building that Bach constructed in a truly enjoyable way, full of new discoveries. The performance is so natural that you feel at home.This is an imposing first volume in which Steyer feels that he has reached further ground! King International
