About this concert
With the stormy emotions of Wilhelm Friedemann, the haunting melancholy of Carl Philipp Emanuel and the tender warmth of Johann Christian, three Bachs tell their story as they learned it from their father: at the keyboard. Anders Muskens makes a plea in favour of the three juniors, who were by turns considered the greatest among the Bachs.

Anders Muskens (b. 1993) is a Canadian professional early keyboard specialist and ensemble director. He began piano studies at the age of 4 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and completed an Associate Diploma in modern piano from the Royal Conservatory of Music, Toronto under the tutelage of Dr Irina Konovalov. He completed a Master’s degree in historical performance on fortepiano and harpsichord at the Royal Conservatoire The Hague under Dr Bart van Oort and Petra Somlai, and with Fabio Bonizzoni and Patrick Ayrton for harpsichord.
