The Dutch Bach Society, led by Jos van Veldhoven, has created a fresh image of Bach for the 21st century, and with the engineering of Channel Classics, which conveys the subtleties of their performances with insightful interpretation of 18th century performance practices and outstanding musicality, they have recorded Bach's major works. The Bach Society's recordings of Bach's great works in the first decade of the century have been met with great critical acclaim with each release. These masterpieces have been released to great acclaim, and now they are available in a 10-CD box set! The performances, which are exquisitely performed in a composition with only one singer per part and a maximum of three singers, are packed with something to listen to in every corner of the recording. The performance is filled to the brim with interesting elements to be heard at every corner.The basso continuo includes not only the organ, but also harpsichord and theorbo, and now well-known soloists such as Fred Jacobs and Mike Fentros on strings and Peter Jan Belder and Siebe Hengstra on harpsichord are found in each section of the orchestra. It is a pleasure to listen to them and see whose sound it is. This is a rare opportunity to purchase these masterpieces, which are too good not to know. (No lyrics are included in the booklet.)
