Something for a Friday: All of Bach

[Padraig]

A "reprint" of a fairly recent video this week - from October 2017. Shunske Sato leads a group of eleven players - but if ever a work demonstrated what the often overused epithet "evergreen" really means ...

Magnifique! Always fresh and green.

I am listening to Ralph Kirkpatrick's 'Goldberg' at the mo.
In TODAY'S pantheon, how does that rate?

I have no idea how that happened! I clicked on my homepage link - exactly as I do every week - and it took me to the Burgenbrand!

With apologies to M Fortin, this week indeed is his performance of the Prelude & Fugue in Ab, #17 from the First Book of the "Well-Tempered Clavier", BWV 862 "In a flat"? Looks like a very posh bedsit to me! (Nice aerial photography, too.)

Brand new video, recorded in April, last year.

Yes - that was on when I checked this morning, but remembering how I'd got an out-of-date video last week (and the Ab major P&F was showing as "new" on the All of Bach homepage, I thought things must have gone awry again! It looks as if the repeat Flute Sonata (which is lovely) is this week's offering!

Violin Concerto in D minor BWV 1052r

An attempted reconstruction of the original Violin Concerto on which the Harpsichord Concerto BWV 1052 was founded. The "Cast & Crew" (of this newly-published video, recorded 14 months ago in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam) details everyone involved, but I can't find any mention of who did the reconstruction work.

Not, to my taste, amongst the better performances in the AoB project: not only are there the usual Shunske Sato mannerisms of "squeezing" phrases with miniscule ritenuti that really hold up the momentum for me - but there's some uncharacteristically "scrubby" playing that I don't like. Harpsichord continuo on this OVpP ("One Violin per Part" - again demonstrating that larger forces are totally unnecessary) performance is Richard Egarr, whose Harmonia Mundi recording of the Harpsichord "original" will almost certainly be given a spin hereabouts later today.

Concerto in C major for solo Organ, BWV 595

A single Movement transcription of a now lost Violin Concerto by Johann Ernst "in the Italian style", played by Elske te Lindert on the Hinsz organ from 1742 of the High Church of St Nicholas in Kampen, the Netherlands. Johann Ernst was Duke of Saxe-Weimar, an enthusiastic collector of scores of many Italian Concertos, and Bach's employer in Weimar (which accounts for all the Concertos that Bach wrote during his time at Weimar) - it was only after Johann Ernst's death in 1715, at the age of 18, that Bach's relationship with his employers in Weimar went sour.

A repeat video, first published just over three years ago, and recorded in October 2015.

Prelude & Fugue in C#, BWV 848

The third pair from the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book One.

Unfortunately, there is a "Server Error" on my Laptop this morning, which allows me to reach the AoB website, but not the performance itself. Here's the link to the Website, in the hope that the glitch clears up later (it's probably the hot weather!)

Thanks as always ferney.
Performance still not working though

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

No - and it is the AoB website that's causing whatever the problem is: all the archived videos are playing without any problems.

So - until they get themselves sorted out:
