Bach’s Sonatas for Flute and Fortepiano
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, July 16, 2017 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
The fortepiano was invented near the end of Bach’s life, and the great composer was invited to play one of the new instruments at the Court of Frederick the Great. Scholars believe one of Bach’s flute sonatas was written with the fortepiano in mind, and using that as a starting point, flutist Susan Rotholtz and keyboard master Kenneth Cooper recorded an album in 2002 of Bach flute sonatas using a fortepiano which we sample this week.
And Rachel talks with Vivian Howard of the PBS program, A Chef’s Life, and chef/owner of The Chef and the Farmer restaurant in Kinston, NC. Find out about the breakfast traditions of Vivian’s childhood and her latest cookbook.
