The Italian Concerto, BWV 971, original title: Concerto nach Italienischem Gusto (Concerto after the Italian taste), published in 1735 as the first half of Clavier-Übung II (the second half being the French Overture) is a three-movement concerto for two-manual harpsichord solo composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. The Italian Concerto has become popular among Bach's keyboard works, and has been widely recorded both on the harpsichord and the piano.
Movements:
Without tempo indication
Andante
Presto
The Italian Concerto's two lively F major outer movements, in ritornello style, frame a florid arioso-style movement in D minor, the relative minor.
An Italian concerto relies upon the contrasting roles of different groups of instruments in an ensemble; Bach imitates this effect by creating contrasts using the forte and piano manuals of a two-manual harpsichord throughout the piece. In fact, along with the French Overture and some of the Goldberg Variations, this is one of the few works by Bach which specifically require a 2-manual harpsichord.
Bach also transcribed Italian concertos by Vivaldi and others for solo harpsichord (BWV 972-987), and for solo organ or pedal harpsichord (BWV 592-596)

Grigory Lipmanovich Sokolov (en ruso Григо́рий Ли́пманович Соколо́в) es un concertista de piano, a menudo considerado como uno de los mejores pianistas con vida. Nació en San Petersburgo, Rusia, el 18 de abril de 1950.1
Biografía
Sokolov comenzó sus estudios de piano a la edad de cinco años y accedió al conservatorio de San Petersburgo a la edad de siete, donde estudió con Leah Zelikhman y con Moisey Khalfin posteriormente. A la edad de doce ofreció su primer gran recital en Moscú, donde interpretó piezas de Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Mendelssohn, Skriabin, Liszt, Debussy y Shostakóvich en la Philharmonic Society.2 A la edad de dieciséis años, captó la atención internacional cuando el jurado del Concurso Internacional Tchaikovski en su edición de 1966 presidido por Emil Gilels le concedió por unanimidad la Medalla de Oro. Al parecer, la decisión resultó ser una sorpresa: "el pequeño Grisha Sokolov de tan solo dieciséis años había resultado ganador en aquella competición y, sin embargo, nadie lo tomó en serio en aquella época."3
A pesar del prestigio internacional obtenido tras ganar el Concurso Internacional Chaikovski, la carrera internacional de Sokolov no despegó hasta finales de 1980.

Grigory Lipmanovich Sokolov (Russian: Григо́рий Ли́пманович Соколо́в; born April 18, 1950 in Leningrad[1]) is a Russian concert pianist, often considered one of the greatest living pianists.[2][3]
Biography
Sokolov began studying the piano at the age of five, entering the Leningrad Conservatory at age seven to study with Leah Zelikhman, later studying there with Moisey Khalfin. At 12, he gave his first major recital in Moscow, in a concert of works by Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Rachmaninoff, Scriabin, Liszt, Debussy, and Shostakovich at the Philharmonic Society.[4] At age 16, he came to international attention when the jury at the 1966 International Tchaikovsky Piano Competition, headed by Emil Gilels, unanimously awarded him the Gold Medal. It seems this may have also been a surprising result: "16-year old Grisha Sokolov who finally became the winner of that competition was not taken seriously by anyone at that time."[5]
In fact, despite the international prestige of his Tchaikovsky Competition success, Sokolov's international career began to take off only towards the end of the 1980s. It has been said [6] that his not defecting, and the limited travelling allowed under the Soviet Regime were to blame. This is contradicted by the fact[4] that Sokolov gave US tours in 1969, 1971, 1975, and 1979, as well as numerous recitals elsewhere in the world such as Finland and Japan. "Sokolov's life as a touring soloist is quite overcrowded. He tours a great deal in both his motherland and abroad."[4]
The 1980s seem to have proved something of a stumbling-block to Sokolov's career in the US. "In the beginning, I played a lot of single concerts in America, in 1969, '71 and, I think, 1975. After that there was a break in relationships between the U.S. and the Soviet Union--they were disconnected by the Afghanistan War. One tour in the U.S. was canceled in 1980. Then all cultural agreements between the two countries were cancelled."[7] In addition, during the breakup of the former Soviet Union, Sokolov played no concerts outside Russia.[8] He is now a well-known figure in concert halls around Europe, but much less so in the U.S.[9] Sokolov produces very few recordings; his last CD was released in 1995.[9]
In March 2009, it was reported that Sokolov cancelled a planned concert in London because of British visa requirements demanding that all non-EU workers provide fingerprints and eye prints with every visa application (he also cancelled his 2008 concert on seemingly similar grounds). Sokolov protested that such requirements had echoes of Soviet oppression.[10]
Influences
When asked, Sokolov cited the following pianists as having inspired him in his years of studies: "Of those whom I heard on the stage I'd like to name first of all Emil Gilels. Judging by the records, it was Rachmaninoff, Sofronitsky, Glenn Gould, Solomon [and] Lipatti. As to esthetics, I feel most close to Anton Rubinstein."[4]
Repertoire
The 10 CDs (2 of Bach, 2 of Beethoven, 2 of Schubert, 2 of Chopin, 1 of Brahms, and 1 of Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, and Prokofiev; all recorded by the label Opus 111) and 1 DVD (a live recital in Paris) that are currently (2011) available for Sokolov constitute a snap-shot of the repertoire that Sokolov has so far performed.
