Post Description

All the virtues of Suzuki's series are here in abundance, including brilliant clarity at quick tempos in the big trumpet-and-drum movements, a certain effortless quality, and ethereal coordination with the soloists, who for the most part are regulars from earlier in the cycle. The newcomer this time is the countertenor Damien Guillon, a young, nicely delicate voice that bears watching. If you want an idea of what Suzuki's Bach is all about, sample the soprano aria, track 3, from the Cantata N. 100, Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan, BWV 100, with its blistering flute part and dense interaction with the vocal soloist. Suzuki, here as everywhere, makes it sound easy when it most assuredly was not. If this is your first experience with Suzuki, you could do much worse, although you might start with some of the more famous cantatas.
