1730-1788 Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach composed over 1000 works from songs to symphonies. The 'Nachlass-Verzeichnis' is the earliest catalog of his works. Although he primarily composed for keyboard, he did write some for organ.He composed most of his organ sonatas and two organ concertos for the Princess Anna Amalia. The organ sonatas are notably written without pedal because the Princess could not play with pedals. His other works include pedal. His style is notable for its freedom and variety. For example, in his Preludio in D Major H. 107, he freely switches back and forth from Grave to Presto. The texture also changes between the two markings as well. The Grave has a thick chordal texture while the presto is light with thin texture. | |||
