Building a Library: Bach's Concerto for Oboe, Violin and strings in C minor BWV1060R
David Vickers recommends a version of this ever-popular Bach Concerto. Though the manuscript was lost, a reconstruction of it was made possible because, in 1736, Bach had arranged it as the Concerto for two harpsichords and orchestra in C minor.

Hogwood's AAM was with Cat Mackintosh and Stephen Hammer...

I had this on an LP, but it was too scratchy and I offloaded it.

It's a beautiful work. I'm looking forward to this episode

[Pulcinella]

What does the R stand for in the BWV number?

(Answer: Why don't I Google and find out? Reconstruction!)

[Barbirollians]

Reichenberg and Standage a desert island disc for me.

[BBMmk2]

I am surprised there's not more versions of this work, really. I have Raymond Leppard et al and also I think Kennedy, etc?

[Richard Barrett]

I am surprised there's not more versions of this work, really.

Not sure what you mean, there must be at least 30 recordings currently available.

Yes, a quick search of the Presto site reveals more than are on Alpie's list.
Has the R confused the issue, I wonder?
