The Siciliano movement of Bach's Flute Sonata No. 2 transports seamlessly to piano in this arrangement by Wilhelm Kempff, played by Andrew von Oeyen. Discover his album of Bach and Beethoven: https://w.lnk.to/bbeLY

The pianist turned to Bach during the difficult period of 2020. "While I had studied many of his keyboard works, I almost never performed them; I was not a specialist. Yet his music was calling, and with a newfound liberty of time to explore repertoire without professional deadlines, I decided to bury my troubles in his contrapuntal canon. While reading through a four-voice fugue I told myself: ‘This is good for the brain and fingers.’ … But I soon realised this was no academic pursuit; the attraction was deeper. Something about this music just seemed to make sense now, when so little else did."
