Perfect.......2006-03-10

Let scholars and dogmatic persons will forgive me, but this record is like a drink of fresh air among a lot of flat, colourless and italianized executions of Bach's overtures. Though it is the early version of overtures, but is quite finished work, free from all corrections introduced made by both Bach, and his editors subsequently.
In this record the relationship of Bach's overtures, as well as overtures of his great contemporaries like Handel, Telemann and Fasch and less known composers like Kusser and J.B.Bach, with the best samples of the French school is especially obvious. Magnificent execution on period instruments strengthens this impression even more. This is the one of few cases when during listening to execution you really concentrate on the work of the composer, instead of you watch a game of an outstanding pianist or violinist.
I feel precisely the same at listening the late version of overtures in execution of La Stravaganza Koln, re-issued recently on Brilliant Classics. Near to these two records all other executions simply grow gim.

Bach: Overtures (Suites) Nos. 1-4.......2006-07-20

Bach: Overtures (Suites) Nos. 1-4~ Johann Sebastian Bach is a splendid recording with the amazing flutist Karl Kaiser and the great Cologne Chamber Orchestra. Bach is without any doubt one of my favorite composers. Bach is such a structured composer and that fits my taste just right. One never ever has to wonder if one is listening to an Adagio, or an Allegretto. To compare Bach with todays composers is not fair since he is so superior in so many ways that it would be unfair. He wrote music composers nowadays can only create in their imagination. This recording in question was produced by Naxos with a book-let that is in fact as cheap as they come. The essay inside is well written, but they have gone cheap on the amounts of pictures. Whilst the front is quite nice, it lack pictures inside the book-let and they could have added one on the back cover as well. Karl Kaiser is as written earlier a very accomplished flutist and does a very good job on this very fine recording. I highly recommend this recording to connoisseurs and purveyors of good music and to aficionados of great music in general.

In many ways an exemplary recording.......2005-03-14

Recorded at two sessions during 1998 at Germany’s national radio station (“DeutschlandRadio”), this disk is in many ways exemplary. The music is played against the background of historical research into Bach’s style and is able to stand up to comparison with the performance of even top-class period instrument ensembles – although it should be underscored that the Cologne Chamber Orchestra plays on modern instruments, whose sound is, to my ears, sharper and more metallic than that of the usual 18th century orchestra. But Helmut Müller-Brühl has chosen pretty much ideal tempi and uses decidedly baroque phrasing and rhetoric, making the question of what instruments are used to recede into the background. Of course, it is not only the style but the finesse with which is played that adds to the grand impression given. And coupled with this is the excellent recording quality, better, I think, than anything I have heard from Naxos (with the exception of their Mussorgsky SACD). And the accompanying booklet can easily match most of what is produced at three or four times the price by other labels: essays in three languages, information about the orchestra and the soloist (Karl Kaiser), black-and-white photographs and a table showing Bach’s entire orchestral production (the CD is Volume 8 of a series presenting Bach’s entire orchestral output). This is eminently satisfying material, my only query being that if you are going to record Bach in such a wonderfully historically-informed performance, why not go the whole way and use period instruments? It is this query that prevents me giving the CD five stars, especially as I still have a preference for the old (1979) recording by The English Concert under the leadership of Trevor Pinnock (published by Deutsche Grammophon Archiv together with the Brandenburg Concertos in a 3-CD box).

Not really Bach, but entertaining nonetheless.......2005-03-13

The Slovakian chamber orchestra “Capella Istropolitana” obviously made some great strides during its Naxos period, and their 1989 recordings of Bach’s Orchestral Suites or Overtures are, although definitely not “early music” in the now-used sense, a lot better than their versions of both Vivaldi and Handel recorded a year earlier. Perhaps that is the result of the change of conductor from Jozef Kopelman to Jaroslav Dvorák, himself an accomplished musician and composer who arranged one of the additional pieces on this CD himself. At any rate, the tempi here are anything but “lame-duckish” (my comment on the Handel Concerti Grossi) and compare quite favourably with other recordings of the same repertoire. As the recording quality is more than adequate and the playing of the orchestra accomplished, the result is an entertaining hour of listening (total time 67’22”). Of course, for Bach’s Orchestral Suites there are any number of more historical alternatives, both on modern and on period instruments, and this recording cannot even begin to match the versions by, for example, the English Concert, directed by Trevor Pinnock, or by Reinhard Goebel’s Musica Antiqua Köln (both on Deutsche Grammophon). Even Naxos have re-recorded the Orchestral Suites in more historical garb (but still on modern instruments) with the Cologne Chamber Orchestra directed by Helmut Müller-Brühl, and I suspect that if it is just the Naxos price you are looking for, you should take that superb version, which has been praised by the critics and awarded prizes.

Where the Capella Istropolitana version does score is that the Orchestral Suites are divided up into two CDs which are then complemented by some arrangements of other Bach music by composers/conductors from later centuries. This has little to do with Bach himself, of course, and could be considered anathema by purists, but the pieces do at least show how Bach’s music was received and understood during the next two centuries. Joachim Raff’s orchestral arrangement of Bach’s French Suite No. 3 is, from the point of view of an early music fan, sickly-sweet. Leopold Stokowski’s arrangement of a piece from the Well-Tempered Clavier is very un-Bach-like. Jaroslav Dvorak’s version of the siciliano from Bach’s Sonata for Violin and Harpsichord does at least have the merit of demonstrating very clearly what a “siciliano” is all about. And last but not least on this first of the two disks there is Bantock’s famous version of “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme”, in which we get not only a lively version of the old German chorale but also a rather nice, somewhat jazzy opening that people of my generation may remember for its role in a commercial campaign for a certain brand of champagne! It is to listeners who are looking out for these rather out-of-the-way pieces that I would recommend this CD; if it is Bach himself you are looking for, then please go elsewhere.

Recording Stands On Its Own.......2001-12-30

This is the first Naxos disc I ever purchased and it left enough of an impression on me to persuade me to continue purchasing with this label. The performance is good but not particularly great. Nothing really stands out but sometimes that can be a good thing. Certainly purchase this cd if you are looking to try Bach for the first time. If you're already a Bach follower I can still recommend this recording because it costs about as much as a gallon of milk and sounds pretty good to boot.

Terrific.......2001-07-02

this set was bought for me by a friend of mine, knowing that I love just about all varieties of music. I found this to be of real good sound quaility, and extremely relaxing plus it helped to put me in a good frame of mind, add to that that the baby I watch enjoyed it and was able to go to sleep peacefully makes it well worth the purchase. I highly recommend it.

Above review is misattribution........2002-11-07

The David Hurwitz review included on this page is for the four suites on Harmonia Mundi by a Berlin group, not this cd on Archiv by Musiqua Antiqua Koln. I have heard neither.
