5.0 out of 5 stars Bach for a buck!, 23 Mar 2006
By DocMartin (Somerset,UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This CD must represent the best value for money of any item in the Amazon catalogue: four Bach concerti at less than a pound a piece! Not only that, but what you have here is the English Chamber Orchestra playing Bach AND they're being conducted by Daniel Barenboim. If that isn't enough for you, the soloist is Itzhak Perlman. That's right, for less than pound a piece! (for those of you outside the sterling zone, that's a tad over one dollar/one euro each)

Assuming you're still reading this, rather than adding the CD to your shopping basket I could add, in a nonchalant yet triumphal manner, that the jewel in the crown comes at the end when Pinchas Zuckerman joins in for the Concerto in D for Violin and Strings (the “Double Violin”), one of my very favourite pieces of music. So, for less than a pound a piece, you have a great composer's great work, a great orchestra under their greatest conductor and two of the 20th Century's greatest violinists who invariably make a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. So that's great - why aren't you clicking on the shopping basket?

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful!!!, 11 April 2005
Listening to the perfomances on this CD is like drifting on a big fluffy cloud. Itzhak Perlman plays the violin with warmth and gentleness, without being boring - far from it! And the collaboration between Perlman and Zukerman on the D minor pieces is just brilliant.

4.0 out of 5 stars A real treat for the ears,mind, and soul, 13 Jun 2006
fresh, lively, up-front, open and honest - and with no distortions or mannerisms masquerading as 'interpretation'.

4.0 out of 5 stars perfect performance with not a really great interpretation..
Perlman is a violonist whose perormance is regarded as standard when it comes to Bach's works; in this album however, I was a bit disappointed of finding what I would expect in... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars I've turned my back on Bach
I used to be a huge fan of Bach, bach in the day, but ever since hearing Stravinsky, I can't get bach into it. It's really bachward in comparison. Read more
