Bach: Orchestersuiten 1&2

These are too very beautiful. Obviously we can mention the more obvious Badinerie of the OS 2, but I have to mention especially Track 8 the Sinfonia from Cantata 29. The play is beautiful, and the theme is deep, in the dimension of inter-instrument (timbral?) counterpoint.

La Stravaganza Köln,
Andrew Manze
