Bach (1685-1750)

Description:

The long-awaited new release from the Berlin Academy of Ancient Music is the crystallization of Bach's "knowledge", the technique of fugue! The most exciting performance ever! The very mention of the "Technique of Fugue" might make you frown and get lost in the complex fortress of Bach's counterpoint, but in the hands of the Berlin Academy of Ancient Music, it sounds so exciting! Of course, the solid formality of Bach's interweaving of lines and lines, dots and dots, is not compromised at all. There are many performances where you can tell that "Ah, this is the main theme and this is the counter-melody," but it is hard to find a performance where both the main theme and counter-melody are in such tension, excitement, and sublime "beauty" are maintained.The chorale from BWV38 is recorded first, but it is played in D minor instead of the original key, which the members thought would be a good introduction to the "technique of fugue" for the listeners. The members thought that it would be a good introduction to the "Technique of Fugue" for the audience. According to the members' opinion, we do not know if Bach had this theme in mind when he wrote this fugue technique, but we can recognize the similarity in the structure of the theme. Also, all the members sometimes had to listen to this piece first before they could get into the fugue technique during the actual recording.Be a witness to the endless game of "knowledge" left by Bach, in which the members of the Berlin Academy of Ancient Music, a leading figure in the world of ancient music, take on the challenge in serious competition!
