Johann Christian Bach's music is very interesting. I heard a piece by him once and thought it was Mozart cuz I always expected anyone with the last name of Bach to write Baroque music I recently found out that he influenced Mozart.
I have a question. Everyone knows C.P.E.'s famous Solfeggio. Every copy of that piece that I own is written for two hands like any other piece. But recently I was informed that C.P.E. wrote it for only one hand. Is this true? It is possible to play it this way, but it is extreamly difficult because of the speed which it is taken at. I hope someone can shed some light on this. Thank you.
