Keyboard Music by Bach
‘THE Dunedin pianist Koa Nees has : begun a series from 4YA, consisting of Keyboard Music by Bach. These programmes must be recommended as.necessary listening for Bach-lovers and all piano students, for Mrs. Nees is a musician whose performances always reveal that quality which can only be described by the overworked adjective, "authoritative." I want to convey, by this, that the pianist seems always mindful of the spirit of the music, plays it in a way one imagines the composer would have approved, and by means of complete technical’ mastery conceals the interpreter and reveals the music’s creator, Mrs. Nees’s first programme consisted of the Partita in B Flat, and her second of the Chromatic Fantasie and Fugue, No programme details were given of further recitals when I listened to the first recital; it would be satisfying to know ahead of time just which Bach works Mrs. Nees intends to include in the series, how long the series will last, and in what order we may expect to hear the particular items.
