Bach - Brandenburg Concertos / Freiburg Baroque Orchestra Reviews
Great DVD
Amazing performance and the sound and video quality is very good. Good camera work too. It's interesting that there's no conductor as they're going by the 18th century style, so they are a little more animated than most classical performances (only because they need to keep some sort of time/expression with the missing conductor). If you're looking for a good performance, this is probably the best DVD on Amazon for that.
What's the hurry???
Yes, these are expertly played, even impassioned, renditions of Bach's historic concertos, but I don't care what "period practice" says about faster tempos being "correct". To me, the poetry and existential heartbeat of these pieces are ruined by these sweat-stained, high velocity tempos with blurs of notes racing past so fast I'm surprised I didn't hear a Doppler Effect! Where goes the melody when every concerto is running to catch a bus?
