Christophe Rousset offers his version of Bach's Art of Fugue, finally tackling the German master's most mysterious work, a phenomenal and unfinished construction whose instrumentation has given rise to musicological debate in recent centuries. Behind the prowess of this cathedral-like work, the performer reveals all the virtuosity that it demands from the keyboardist who brings it to life. A meditative journey to the heart of the most ethereal compositional treatise ever written.
