Nice Cantatas Performed Well
Obi | SLC, UT | 03/22/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have always loved the opening chorus to BWV 67. It has an almost geologic quality to it. In listening to it I can hear the rising and falling of mountain ranges and basins filling with silt and sand. What an amazing work of art.



There is something both rational and emotional about Bach that sometimes seems otherworldly. It is almost enough to make this atheist believe in God only because Bach did. His music sounds simple the same way Michael Jordan made basketball look simple. But in the melodies, harmonies, counter-melodies and rythmns I hear total genius.



As for this particular CD, there are many fine arias, chorales and choruses. Sit back and enjoy these works of genius. And thanks to Richter and his gang for putting together wonderful performances of some very nice cantatas.



I welcome feedback on this and all reviews at wstrnlibwarrior@yahoo.com
