“Robin Blaze responds with tenderly articulated phrasing to the lyrical opening aria of Vergnügt Ruh and, as we have come to expect from these musicians, the instrumental partnership is intuitively complementary and well served by the spacious SACD acoustic.”
March 2008
“In all these works, Bach employs a highly embellished organ, which Masaaki Suzuki delivers with authority. Witness more golden Blaze in the last cantata to cap a disc of especially committed and engaged performances - in a series whose quality shows no signs of letting up.”
“The discovery of the evening was Blaze’s perfect little fragment of a solo cantata”
