A monumental recording of Bach performance, combining precision and passion.
This album features four pieces performed by the Munich Bach Orchestra under the baton of Richter. The clear structure and vibrant performances set a new standard for classical performance.
Karl Richter's recording of the complete Bach Orchestral Suites is a masterpiece that demonstrates the pinnacle of performance in the pre-Early Music era. Richter's meticulous structure and propulsive tempos bring Bach's dance-like character to the forefront. The performance of the Munich Bach Orchestra, led by flute Aurèle Nicolet, is refined yet warm, breathing new life into Baroque music. The recording is highly transparent and boasts a level of perfection that has not faded even after half a century.
