Paul Robinson said: Bach's final work, masterfully performed & very well recorded, esp. when considering the year (the usual brassy, harsh mid 80's tone is conspicuously absent!), The finest recording I've heard of this piece, may be hard to find in U.S. Jan Hanford said: A lush and elegant performance by string orchestra of one of my favorite Bach works. Very highly recommended. Acknowledgements: Thank you to the following for submitting this recording and for your comments: Alan Warhaftig Paul Robinson And from the collection of Jan Hanford.
