This production with the Italian pianist Francesco Tropea presents the world premiere recordings of keyboard sonatas BWV 963-970 by Johann Sebastian Bach, which are relatively unknown. As a result, they are rarely performed or recorded, and when they are, it is usually on old instruments and only rarely on a modern piano; in fact, no piano recordings of the sonatas BWV 969 and 970 exist at all.

Tropea gratefully took the opportunity to present us with comparatively unknown music by Bach on his recording for PROSPERO.
