Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Das Wohltemperierte Klavier I: Präludium und Fuge Nr. 5 in D-Dur, BWV850

L'une a réuni Johann Sebastian Bach, Philip Glass et Arvo Pärt dans un récital liquide ; l'autre a joué Chopin, Tchaïkovski et Islamey de Balakirev avec une virtuosité qui a tout emporté sur son passage.

I must admit that Bach through Brass, as this concert was entitled, filled me with a certain amount of trepidation. Bach, on instruments for which the music in the programme was not designed, on instruments which were not even around in Bach’s time (at least not in their modern-day form), did not sound immediately appealing; nevertheless, something drew me in, and I was pleasantly surprised.
