If tomorrow, Frédéric Chopin would play J.S.Bach's Well-Tempered Klavier in Carnegie Hall, would you go? Would you die of curiosity how the genius player Chopin must have been, would deliver that music?
I would...
Unfortunately that'll never happen in reality... but here is some good news to cover up for that: we do have information, very concrete, almost tangible information that tells us a lot of how the musician Chopin shaped the music of Bach.
The answer to that is kind of astonishing, it puts us immediately back in a context that is very different from ours.
So let me guide you in this episode to some interesting perspectives, all based on a 19th century score and... some pencil markings!
