5.0 out of 5 stars ...this is how a Bach opera might have been!!!, August 30, 2003

This review is from: Bach Edition: Cantates Profanes (Secular Cantatas) BWV 201 "Geschwinde, ihr wirbeinden Winde"; BWV 205 "Zerreisset, zersprenget, zertrümmert"; BWV 213 / Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin (Audio CD)

I've just bought this album after a very long search! It was worth the wait and the effort for this is a great collection of music by the greatest of composers: Bach!

I once read that Bach's Secular Cantatas give a hint of what a Bach opera might have been like. After listening to this album I must say that I fully agree with that, these cantatas seem much lighter (somehow operistic) than Bach's "regular" sacred cantatas!

Each of the cantatas in this album is played wonderfully and the recording is fabulous! Jacobs expertly leads an ideal group of singers, among them Andreas Scholl (countertenor), whose singing is always fantastic!!!

This is a gorgeous and very interesting album! If you like Bach's vocal music buy it...if you can find it!!!
