Masaaki SuzukiAbout
The cantatas featured here generally make sparing use of the choir, but centre on two arias, linked by one or two recitatives, and a final chorale. In addition, the surviving works contain several examples of parody and reuse of earlier instrumental movements as introductions: the opening Sinfonia of BWV 174 uses the first movement of his Third Brandenburg Concerto.
This volume features soprano Hana Blažíková alongside three other familiar soloists of the series: Robin Blaze (counter-tenor), Gerd Türk (tenor) and Peter Kooij (bass).
Recent releases from the series have received critical acclaim: in International Record Review, Volume 48, for example, was described as demonstrating ‘the ever-rising standard, by now quite stratospheric, of Suzuki and his choir and orchestra in this massive recording project.’
‘With Suzuki you can hear Bach's heart beat...’ - International Record Review on Volume 40
