In 1723, three centuries ago, Johann Sebastian Bach composed his Two-Part Inventions BWV 772-786. The work, written for his son Wilhelm Friedemann for educational purposes, explores counterpoint writing with various dance movements. These 15 pieces were reinvented from Bachian principles by jazz pianist Moisés P. Sánchez at the request of the March Foundation to bring them through improvisation to a modern language without losing the Bach essence.
