C.P.E. Bach: Sonata for flute and harpsicord in G minor (Bwv 1020, H 542.5) was composed in 1734 when Carl Philipp Emanuel just started his studies at the University in Frankfurt (Musikalische Akademie).
The authorship of this sonata is still unclear since various sources claim that this work originally was catalogued as violin sonata (BWV 1020) by Johann Sebastian Bach. Most likely because compositional style of young Carl Philipp Emanuel had distinctive influence of his father, J.S.Bach at that time.
Bach Carl Philipp Emanuel
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788) was a German composer, son of J.S.Bach and godson of G.P.Telemann. C.P.E. Bach’s “sensitive style” (empfindsamer Still) marked a transition between baroque and classical style, applying principles of rhetoric and drama to musical structures. C.P.E. Bach was known as “Berlin Bach” to differenced himself from his brother J.C.Bach who was known as “London Bach”. Besides composing, C.P.E.Bach wrote “Essay on the true art of playing keyboard instruments”, thus greatly influencing upbringing of the greatest classical composers: Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.
