About

The ‘traditional’ belief that at least six out of seven of the J.S.Bach Klavierkonzerte are arrangements by the composer of his own Violin Concertos rests on very shaky ground indeed. In the informative booklet notes, Seivewright argues that we can no longer simply assume that the four Klavierkonzerte BWV 1052, BWV 1053, BWV 1055 and BWV 1056, for which there exist no known versions for other instruments, are arrangements of Violin Concertos. There is quite simply no hard evidence that this is so, but great deal of circumstantial evidence which suggests that the music was originally conceived for solo keyboard instrument and orchestra.

Peter Seivewright's CD discography is extensive and includes Louis Glass Piano Music, American Piano Sonatas, (both for Divine Art), The Complete Piano Music of Carl Nielsen, Contemporary Scottish Piano Music, and the major piano works by the Danish Romantic composer Victor Bendix . Peter is working through a series of CDs for Divine Art featuring the Piano Sonatas of Baldassare Galuppi, of which three have so far been released. Future recording plans with Divine Art include music by Bach, Reger, and further volumes of American Piano Sonatas.

Scottish Baroque Soloists was formed in 2003, the brainchild of Peter Seivewright and Gillian Leitch, principally to record concerti by J.S. Bach but also to perform lesser-known works by composers such as Galuppi. There are two distinguishing features to the ensemble. As its name suggests, this is a formation of individual string players rather than a conventional orchestra, to give the feeling of soloists performing.

The use of guitar is a welcome variation and a clever way of complementing the muted attack of the piano tone...it feels like the work of a genuine chamber ensemble, allowing both soloist and ensemble to take interpretative risks - dynamic nuances, very deliberate tempi
