Johann Sebastian BachConcertos for Harpsichord and Strings BWV 1055-1058
The English Concert, Trevor Pinnock
Archiv 415 992-2
There's some brilliant playing here, especially from Trevor Pinnock, and much to enjoy, the balance being excellent. I would myself prefer less brilliance in the finale of the A major Concerto which really is taken much too fast for an Allegro ma non Santo (the last three words must mean something), but many will listen with astonishment as well as admiration.
