My Bach Cantata project took several steps forward yesterday when I
received in the mail 8 LPs, covering 16 cantatas, including 13 that I
didn't have. I now only have about 18 to go to have a full set. I sure
love these works. The present LPs are from the Harnoncourt/Concentus
Musicus complete edition on Telefunken. Telefunken LPs have never
appeared much on the "Super Recordings" lists, but I find their sound
(in general) to be very, very, natural. Highly recommended.

Hard to fault Harnoncourt on Bach. Good listening!

I first "discovered" him way back in my undergrad days through his
Brandenburg set. I still love the sound of that set, but I find many of
his tempi there to be a bit plodding, especially in Concerto 2.


It's almost 80 degrees here today, but I think that I might stay inside
and listen to these fabulous recordings while doing my taxes ;-)

I'll send you a jar of our -2 degree air (from Thursday) to make you feel
you are not missing something.

lol. I'm in MI in a couple of weeks, and NYC in early April, so I still
might get a taste!
