Masaaki:Masato Suzuki - Bach: Concertos For Two Harpsichords
Catalogue No: BIS2051
Barcode: 7318599920511
Three double concertos for harpsichord by Bach survive, all dating from around 1736, and all arrangements of earlier compositions. Performing these works, with a quintet of string players from the Bach Collegium Japan, Masaaki Suzuki is joined by his son Masato. For the present disc Masato Suzuki has also taken a page from Bach's own book, in arranging the composer's Orchestral Suite No.1 for two unaccompanied harpsichords.
