Lura Johnson releases “The Art of Prelude and Fugue”

For her newest recording, Peabody’s Coordinator of Adult Chamber Music and Steinway artist Lura Johnson (’01, Piano) has tackled a mammoth solo piano undertaking: a curated, intertwined recording of Johann Sebastian Bach’s complete Well-Tempered Clavier and Dmitri Shostakovich’s Preludes and Fugues, Op. 87. The 144-track, seven-hours and 11 minutes long The Art of Prelude and Fugue comes with a thoughtful and insightful listening guide penned by Johnson, and the album can be streamed or purchased online.
