Bach on Disklavier Peter Elyakim Taussig, one of Canada's preeminent concert pianists,  merges computer technology with traditional piano playing. He shapes Bach's masterpieces one line at a time on a concert grand piano controlled by a computer. His interpretations reveal the intricate web of Bach's design as no live recording can.   "Taussig's achievement is imaginative; it's also heroic and thought-provoking... Since he builds the performance up one voice at a time, the individual lines have unusual independence one from the other. And the sound is great." American Record Guide

Taussig recording The Arts of the Fugue on the DCFIII 9' concert grand piano at Yamaha Artist Services in New York, circa 2001

The performance is attractive, informed, and free of gimmickry. Thanks for an Art of Fugue that can teach all of us something new about the music . . . and about the human spirit. Raymond Tuttle, International Record Review	Book 1 (2 CDs) "... helps the listener to discover what Bach had in his imagination, perhaps even beyond Bach's own ability to play it" Charles Laurence, The National Post, Canada
