5.0 out of 5 stars
For Fanciers of Chamber Music,
By rodboomboom (Dearborn, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: J.C. Bach: 6 Quintets op.11 (Audio CD)
This son who went away from Germany and Lutheranism to London, Italy and Catholicism, here provides a delightful recording of these quintets.The balanced playing by the Camerata of the 18th Century on historic instruments is well done. The melodic richness provides each of the six quintets varying, enjoyable tonal color and bouncy themes. Truly enjoyable for connoisseur of this baroque offering.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Nicely recorded, but lacklustre performances,
By A Customer
This review is from: J.C. Bach: 6 Quintets op.11 (Audio CD)
The technical recording of this CD is ok. Good soundstage and range. Not superior, but ok. It is a DDD recording, and the CD appears "GOLD". I waited six weeks for this CD, but it was NOT worth the wait. The performance is lacklustre and mechanical. Nothing special about it. If I had heard it before I bought it I would NOT have purchased it. But it is nice for background music, very pleasant.The out of print Archive recording with the English Concert with the Sextet in C major and OP.22 and OP.11 quintets puts this recording to shame, technical wise, and performance wise. If you are looking for a JCF Bach CD that would be "similar", but to me much nicer, is the available (on Amazon.com) DYNAMIC label recording of the JCF Bach Flute Quartets, by Concilium Musicum. |
