| |  | Bach Cantatas Volume 26Cantatas for Whit Sunday
(recorded: Holy Trinity Church, Long Melford) “As the fruits of Gardiner’s Millennium Bach Pilgrimage emerge on his own Soli Deo Gloria label, one begins to comprehend just what a remarkable achievement the project was... There is eloquent inventiveness at every turn... Excellent and atmospheric readings from Gardiner, the Monteverdi Choir and the English Baroque Soloists” (Stephen Pettitt, Sunday Times) “The seven cantatas assembled here provide a breathtaking array of styles, expressive ranges and music whose variety is seemingly infinite. Gardiner directs all with affection and assurance…The strongest solo contributions from Lisa Larsson and Christoph Genz...Gardiner refreshingly, if sometimes imprudently throws caution to the winds - but the performances pulsate with energy.” BBC Music Magazine, September 2006 **** | | | (also available to download from $21.00) | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

3CDs for the price of 2 'Well worth the wait' (Gramophone) “Time and again you are left to admire the way he never burdens Bach's transparency and profundity with a portentous or heavy air of significance. Touchingly and admirably, he always allows Bach his own voice, his manner at once masterly and self-effacing. How simply and directly he colours and inflects the first Prelude, how assertive but never bullying his second Prelude and Fugue. The third Prelude flashes with all of his early virtuosity, the eighth is ideally sustained and the magical chimes of No 13 are caught to perfection.” Gramophone Magazine, March 2006  BBC Music Magazine

Recorded at the Spiegelsaal, Castle Coethen, 23–26 March 2000 “.what is probably the world's top Baroque orchestra ... It is conceivable, however, that no troupe could perform with the exuberant aplomb and skill of the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra. Their playing is buoyant, technically spot-on and alive with effortlessly controlled energy... we should be grateful for every second in the company of an orchestra like this.” Gramophone Magazine | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

"an interpretation to be treasured...." (Gramophone) “…a grandiose performance - all repeats observed; not bombastic or posturing but eager (in Egarr's words) 'to let this music sing and to keep the music free from rigidity and haste'. Most impressive is the way Egarr conveys the sensation of an edifice being re-created through the building blocks of interconnecting tissue.” Gramophone Magazine, June 2006 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

“How richly satisfying to hear playing of such unimpeachable musical honesty and awe-inspiring pianist grandeur…It is surely no exaggeration to say that if such playing is anything to go by you are listening to one of the finest living pianists; the possessor of qualities that should no longer remain a secret. Hyperion’s sound is of demonstration quality, a crowning touch to musical and pianistic greatness. These are treasurable records” Gramophone Magazine | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
