Bach's instrumental works are foundational to Western music, but many survive only as fragments or in arrangements for other instruments. This 2009 release presents reconstructions of Bach wind concertos, brought to life by conductor Sergio Azzolini and the excellent Kammerakademie Potsdam. These pieces showcase Bach's gift for intricate counterpoint and singing melodic lines, reimagined for winds. The sound is crisp and transparent, ideal for music of such architectural precision. Whether these are lost originals or educated reconstructions, they reveal Bach's compositional genius across instrumental colors most listeners associate with his keyboard and string works.
