From the Bach Collegium Munchen....
The emotional resonance of this magnificent high church music pierces right through my materialistic rationalist armor. The setting of this performance reminds me of my week in Munich this summer, and visits to several of its Baroque churches.
Thanks for posting this. I have been entranced by your performances over the last couple years. I realized at some point that I was becoming involved with classical music again. I have now taken up the cello after a gap of forty years. I can't express the depth of feeling that comes from playing, especially playing with others. Just incredible.
In addition to the beautiful music, it was interesting to see the gender balance in the orchestra... a sharp contrast to the ethnic imbalance... but it is Germany, I suppose...
