about

Original Abstractions is pleased to announce the April 22, 2014 release of Music from the Notebook of Anna Magdalena Bach, featuring Matthew Hough’s new guitar duo arrangements of fifteen timeless works from the 1725 “notebook” compiled by Johann Sebastian Bach and kept by his second wife, Anna Magdalena. Performed by Hough and guitarist Juan Calderon, this recording will appeal both to casual fans of classical and guitar music as well as to students and educators, as it acts as companion to Hough’s 2012 sheet music edition of these arrangements (currently available from Hough House Music Publishers).

In a unique twist, rather than playing fingerstyle, Hough and Calderon perform these arrangements plectrum style (with a guitar pick) for a warmer, folk-oriented sound. The performances on Music from the Notebook of Anna Magdalena Bach combine the raw spirit and vitality of the Baroque with a fresh and contemporary approach to the guitar.
