Description:

[Panorama Series: Semi-New/ Encore Press] Encore pressing of a 2CD series of selected masterpieces by top-notch artists. Long time recording. The second collection of Bach's works, featuring two cantatas and the highlight of the "Matthew Passion," Gardiner, now in the spotlight, conducts a fresh interpretation of Bach, while the two orchestral suites are conducted by Pinnock and feature the new 4D audio recording of the two different recordings, which is also fresh and limpid. This is another fresh and limpid performance. The "Italian Concerto" and Cantata No. 51, with Brendel at the piano, are on the Philips master recording.
