Savoy, the heirs sold a large part of the collection, keep- ing back for better opportunities certain ewanaosA remarkable pieces, of which this was one. It was in 1923 that the sale of the [88o] last instruments took place in the Hotel des Ventes in Paris. All the greatest collectors and buyers were as- sembled, and Casadesus followed the Kranich & Bach bidding with agony. He attended this sale not only on his own account, but also to acquire several instruments which the Duchess of Grammont had requested him to buy for her palace in Venice. At the moment when the Venetian serpent was put up at auction, Casadesus, in the measure of his means, sought it to his utmost, but he was outbidden in such a manner by a young American lady that he was obliged to give it up. $ 'riced from 675 Makers of the world's finest small grand, mastercraftsmen have been building the Kranich & Bach since 1864 and it is one of the few pianos still manufac- tured by members of the origi- nal families who founded the company.

Intervening are twenty-one movements, mostly in the form of chorales treated for organ. Bach began publishing the collection known as the Clavieriibung in 1726. The third part, pub- lished in 1739, puts the date of this Prelude and Fugue in the final, the Leipzig period of his life. Whether Bach performed the Prelude and Fugue together is a matter for conjecture. They are so joined in the edition of his works by Griepenkerl and Roitsch. Griepenkerl took his authority from the word of Forkel, who in turn got it by word of mouth from the sons of Bach. The Fugue has acquired the title "St. Anne's Fugue" from the simi- larity of its subject to the opening phrase of the church tune called * Performed at these concerts February 28, and March 28, 1930, December 19, 1930 and January 12, 1934.

  • Achron a MESSAGE from the MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER
    Achron A MESSAGE FROM THE MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER Dispersed over the centuries to all corners of the earth, the Jewish people absorbed elements of its host cultures while, miraculously, maintaining its own. As many Jews reconnected in America, escaping persecution and seeking to take part in a visionary democratic society, their experiences found voice in their music. The sacred and secular body of work that has developed over the three centuries since Jews first arrived on these shores provides a powerful means of expressing the multilayered saga of American Jewry. My personal interest in music and deep abiding commitment to synagogue life and the Jewish people united as I developed an increasing appreciation for the quality and tremendous diversity of music written for or inspired by the American Jewish experience. Through discussions with con- temporary Jewish composers and performers during the 1980s, I realized that while much of this music had become a vital force in American and world culture, even more music of specifically Jewish content had been created, perhaps performed, and then lost to current and future generations. Believing that there was a unique opportunity to rediscover, preserve, and transmit the collective memory contained within this music, the Milken Archive of American Jewish Music was founded in 1990. This project would unite the Jewish people’s eternal love of music with their commitment to education, a commitment shared by the Milken Family Foundation since our founding in 1982. The passionate collaboration of many distinguished artists, ensembles, and recording producers has created a vast re- pository of musical resources to educate, entertain, and inspire people of all faiths and cultures.
