CPE Bach is my favorite composer. He is a **genius** and to hell with all those stodgy "clicists" mummies, those palsy-stricken minds who still label his art as a treacherous appendix of his father's music or a pale precursor of the Vienna triangle. His music is and will be eternally youthful and has a true value in itself, not only as a "technical advancement" or such silly textbook statements.

I am exceedingly fond of his symphonies, viola da gamba sonates, chamber music in general, oratories, and his keyboard sonatas and cembalo concertos... there isn't a concerto like the D minor concerto (Wq 46 IIRC) anywhere else and I would take it over any Johann Sebastian cembalo concerto at any time!!!

LONG LIFE CPE BACH!!!!!!!!!
