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.
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 ;-)
My favourite Bach would be the harpsichord concerti played on the
piano. I had some LPs years ago...can't remember the pianist(s) but
the music was brilliant...my neighbour wandered in to find out what it
was...
