As part of this


The benefit of a complete set is apparent here, with works one normally doesn't listen to.

[Mapman]

Bach: Cantata BWV 133 "Ich freue mich in dir"

I didn't expect a (non-recitative) movement with no strings! (2 oboes d'amore, alto solo, continue [organ in this recording])

[Daverz]

Bach: Cantata BWV 82 "Ich Habe Genug"

Beautiful recording.

Apart from the links, your voice is interesting to hear too, so do you have some detailed things to say about Volume I, II, III? I would appreciate it.

Trio sonatas formerly attributed to Pergolesi. Pretty sure that the 1st mvt will sound very familiar to many (spoiler: Stravinsky used it in his Pulcinella).

[Madiel]

Medtner: Two Skazki, op.8



The first pair of 'tales' (and they fairly clearly form a pair, with the 2nd almost taking the 1st as its jumping off point) really are quite odd pieces in a way, but no less compelling for it. Number 2 in particular is this neurotic, pulsating thing, one of the longest of the series, and according to the liner notes it has instructions like 'pleading', 'chaotic', 'suffocated' and 'threatening'.
