Bach Piece Discovered

BBC

A previously unknown piece by Bach was discovered among various manuscripts saved during a fire at a library in Weimar, Germany. I was going to ask Robert to get a copy and perform it, but it's a vocal piece. I guess he still could, but I don't think he would.

In other news, I now know what the Classical Station's callsign, WCPE, stands for.

CPE Bach, son of Johan Sebastian Bach.

It's also written for a soprano, methinks. But I'd give it a try if you ask me really nice. Like really nice. Heh
