When one thinks of Bach’s most iconic works, his unaccompanied cello suites undoubtedly come to mind. These compositions of baroque dance music continue to captivate audiences with their elegance and liveliness. Less known but equally enchanting are Bach’s keyboard suites written for the harpsichord or clavichord. The English Suites, French Suites and Partitas each consist of six different suites.
The English Suites, written in Bach’s 30s, are the earliest of the three works, and showcase his formidable skill on the keyboard. From a compositional standpoint, these were crafted during a period when Bach had already honed a mature writing technique but had not quite reached the pinnacle of sophistication found in his later works. We often hear striking melodies in the English Suites that serve as a perfect introduction to Bach’s creations and the broader realm of Baroque music.
當我們提及巴哈一些最廣為人知的音樂作品時，很多人可能會聯想起那膾炙人口的無伴奏大提琴組曲。所謂「組曲」，其實是一組舞曲，源自法國宮廷。這些音樂作品的旋律既優雅又充滿活力，當然也不乏抒情元素。
除了無伴奏大提琴組曲以外，巴哈還為古鍵琴（鋼琴的前身）創作了三套組曲，分別是《英國組曲》、《法國組曲》和《大組曲》，而每套則包含六首組曲。《英國組曲》是相對較早期的作品，在巴哈三十多歲時完成。這些作品給人一種豪邁且富有氣派的感覺；由於它們屬於早期創作，旋律相對簡單直接，容易入耳，而與後期那些複雜精煉的作品截然不同。這次把六首《英國組曲》一併演出，希望能讓觀眾欣賞到巴哈較為平易近人的一面。
Stephen Hung graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in London. Apart from his studies in piano, he also received training on the harpsichord and organ. He is especially drawn to the music of J. S. Bach and previous performances include the complete 2-part and 3-part inventions, Book 2 of the Well-Tempered Clavier, and a number of Jukebox concerts, and collaborative projects with the visual-artist Oychir.
熊韋皓畢業於英國皇家音樂學院鋼琴系，並曾學習彈奏古鍵琴及管風琴。他特別熱衷於巴哈的音樂，曾於2022年演奏《平均律》全集。除了以傳統的方式表演，熊氏亦積極探索以其他形式把音樂帶給聽眾，例如是「巴哈點唱機」、在2018及2019年與視覺藝術家愛卡合作上演的《兔仔的圖象琴譜》。
