CD Reviews

3 secular cantatas from a little known Bach son
04/15/1999
(4 out of 5 stars)

"JCF stands for Johann Christoph Friedrich (1732-1795) who was Concert-Meister at Buckeburg for most of his life. Apart from some trio sonatas Harmonia Mundi 901587, an organ fughetta on Erato17073, and a chorale "Wachet auf" on Conifer 51306 this is his only representation in the catalogue.The first cantata, Pygmalion, is sung by Harry van der Kamp (bass), the two latter by Barbara Schlick (soprano). "Die Amerikanerin" was so named by JCF in the year of the Declaration of Independance, but the subject matter concerns an Arabian girl, Saide. "Ino" is the same text made more famous in the setting by Telemann, but JCF gives it equally good treatment.Conductor Hermann Max. Recorded 1990. Playing time 73'21.
