It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Some really FUN Brandenburgs

195.93.21.66

I've never in my life enjoyed the Bach Brandenburg Concertos as much as I have recently through listening to a batch of HIP versions, which really swing. Fast tempi - gorgeous sonorities. Top of my tree are:
Il Giardino Armonico
Akademie fur Alte Musik, Berlin

And also the original "tempi de Mickey Mouse" pioneer, Musica Antiqua Köln - Reinhard Goebel

To me, these wipe the older versions off the map, including Britten and my previous favourite, Munchinger.

Any other Brandenburg fans out there?
