- The first and only CD in the current catalogue that is completely devoted to harpsichord sonatas by Johann Sebastian's eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann Bach.

- Works that have hardly been recorded and as a whole this recording can be described as a world premiere.

- These sonatas are not only works of great beauty and interest with their sudden contrasts, surprising changes, dramatic and very often humorous effects, but they are also essential part of the development of the keyboard sonata, which leads directly to the great Beethoven sonatas. 

Anneke Uittenbosch ranks among the world's leading interpreters of Baroque harpsichord music. Her performances of works by J.P. Sweelinck, the Bach sons and Peter Philips have received nothing but praise from international critics. Her recordings for GLOBE of the complete works for harpsichord and violin by Carl Philip Emanuel Bach (with violinist Alda Stuurop - GLO 5004 and GLO 5005) have established a new standard or Baroque interpretation..
