An Unexpected Delight
JMB1014 | USA | 02/21/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I was surprised to find this incredibly inexpensive 2-CD set of Bach concerti marvelously performed by the Neues Bachisches Collegium Musicum Leipzig. It may duplicate pieces you own but the performances are thoughtful, disciplined (not mannered), even elegant, and a delight to hear. The sound is also excellent: even listening to it on my computer at work, the sound was sharp, clear and spacious, which is not common with an ordinary computer speaker set-up. There are 95 minutes of music on the two all-digital discs - six concerti. I enjoy Bach instrumental works as much as any classical music. It has been a pleasure to find great sets of the Brandenburg Concerti (Paillard's from decades ago on RCA LP's and the recent 2-CD set from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center) and the orchestral suites (Ristenpart's on LP and Pearlman's on SACD). This a great bargain and the performances by an ensemble from Bach's home town of Leipzig are befitting. I intend to look for other recordings of Bach in this series."
