ABRSM’s Baroque Keyboard Pieces is a collection of the keyboard music of the period 1600-1750, offering a fairly representative selection of the forms, styles and composers of that period. The books are edited by Dr Richard Jones, a leading Bach scholar recently lauded for his edition of The Well-Tempered Clavier.
