Synopsis

Album Description

There are several aspects of this Bach recording that make it special, the most obvious of which of course, is the instrument on which it is being performed. While the marimba was probably ot known in Europe at the time that J.S. Bach was composing the works represented on this album, there are severl facets of the marimba's tone and Steven's manner of playing that make it an ideal "neo-baroque" instrument. In particular, the ring time of the bars and the clarity of articulation make it so.
