Description Shipping information

Bach: The Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1 is a classical album by Mahan Esfahani on Hyperion. This is the CD edition, a 2-disc set. This edition was released on September 12, 2025.

Mahan Esfahani's hugely ambitious, complete Bach keyboard project reaches its summit with Book 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier. Bach wrote his seminal 48 Preludes & Fugues with a harpsichord in mind; this is a rare chance to hear the music as intended. Recorded on a German double-manual harpsichord built by Huw Saunders and based on an instrument thought to have belonged to Bach. Mahan's discography has thus far garnered a Gramophone Award, two BBC Music Magazine Awards, a Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik, Opus Klassik Recording of the Year, Diapason d'Or, Choc de Classica and an ICMA, among many other awards. 2 CD set.
