Free Music Review: Bach at his best
Hit: 5 Stars
Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, like much of Bach's works, are very modern sounding pieces. That's what makes them so appealing. Although each movement is no more than a few minutes long, the melodies and form of each are well developed and gorgeous.
This recording is especially worth buying because Marriner and the Academy produce a well-balanced and well-played interpretation. The instruments are not period instruments, but I think that adds to the overall flavor of this recording. Although the Boston Baroque offers recordings using period pieces, they don't match the interpretive genius of Neville Marriner.
Overall, this disc is a great buy -- only a few dollars for some of my favorite pieces by Bach. Don't make the mistake of assuming the low price of this set is somehow an indication of quality.
