The so-called Brandenburg Concertos are a collection of six instrumental works which Bach wrote during his time as Hofkapellmeister in Cothen. He dedicated them to Margrave Christian Ludwig of Brandenburg. Every single concerto is an interpretation for a variety of instrumentation. Through these works Bach portrays the progressive style of Italian instrumental interpretation, which he greatly admired.
ARTS Music now presents a beautiful recording of the Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 1-4, performed by the ensemble „I Barocchisti“, conducted by Diego Fasolis. Immerse yourself in this fantastic baroque interpretation and discover the incomparable repertoire of Bach's instrumental music on Hybrid SACD in multichannel sound.
Fasolis and I Barrochisti follow the scoring of the works to the letter, in terms of the solo instruments and the small ripieno orchestra which supports them.
Concerto 1 is a suite of dance movements, 10 of them which follow in quick succession, and feature a pair of natural or hand horns, typically used in hunting and not yet sporting the keys which the later French horns have. These horns are very difficult to play, as they are limited to notes of their harmonic series, but they have remarkably different sounds in different registers, unlike the modern horns which are "smoothed out" (more polite) in their tonal qualities. Bach, as other composers, including Mozart, relished these tonal changes, especially at parts of the register in which the tones were prone to "break" - much to the distress of the poor hornists! As well as the horns, there are 3 baroque oboes, a bassoon and a "violino piccolo" (obviously a small violin). Who else would pit these together? Fasolis and his men charge Bach's motoric rhythms with the spirit of the dance, the horns blaze magnificently from the centre back of the ripieno group, who sound to be arrayed in a semi-circle in front of you - no rear-channel gimmickry here. You can clearly hear that the two horns have different tone qualities, one deeper and richer, the other producing spectacular "blatting" sounds in its upper register. The piccolo violinist also produces some wonderful textures - dry spiccato effects on the gut strings and stunningly articulated running passages. There is wonderful solid support from the cellos and a double bass - indeed the characterful and clearly recorded bass lines in Fasolis' set is a prominent feature of the whole. Baroque music relied on terraced dynamics - the "invention" of crescendos by the orchestra at Mannheim was some years away. Listen how Bach screws up the tension and simulates a crescendo by adding more and more instruments, modulating rapidly and holding the melodic line over or under a pedal, which may itself in the treble or in the deep continuo. I Barrochisti are superb at doing this, with every line clear, and these held-back returns to main themes are thrilling.
