J.S. Bach's French Notebook: A great admirer of French music, we know J.S Bach possessed and played music by Nicolas de Grigny, François Couperin, Jean-Henri D’Anglebert and Louis Marchand. C.P.E. Bach also recounts the lost correspondence between his father and François Couperin. This recital by Luke Mitchell presents some of the repertoire Bach seemingly possessed, and what Couperin may have sent him.
