I have never heard this before and it haunts my soul. WF was quite the emotional writer. I never knew. I will be looking for more of his music.
amozartea
I like this piece so much
The work's number semms not correct ,
F. 8 (BR A15) is a sonata in A major, not in A minor.
but I can't find the correct number and the score , could you send me a score?

Incredible! A great composer in his own right with a style all his own. Yet the solid foundation and character instilled by the old man is clearly evident.

Idomeneo
I agree, Freidemann is the most magical composer of all and would like the recommend the newish disc of klavierworks by Berben on the Carus label, it is all previously unrecorded material! Such a shame his life ended in tragedy !
Idomeneo
hater! Friedemann was the most gifted of all.. CPE Bach is a watercolour compared to Freidemann's vast oil paintings!

Wonderful sonata, do you know where to find the musical score?

This piece is actually not by WF Bach, but by Johann Wilhelm Hässler. It has been misattributed to Bach bei someone in the 1960s, and since then this mistake lives on… even Rousset put it on his recording as WF Bach, even though there it becomes actually particularly evident that the style is different from the other pieces on the disc.

Beautiful music in the empfindsamkeit style. Glad I now know it's by Hassler; I always thought it was not idiosyncratic enough to have been by W. F. Bach. It's more akin to C. P. E. Bach in style, although more measured, without such abrupt changes of mood. Imslp has a piano score if anyone's interested – in the original version the upper part is in a soprano clef.
