bwv 1060
Wow,
Bradley was right,
This Casals/Tabutea/Stern version of bwv 1060 oboe and violin concerto is
deeply moving.
I don't know whose idea it was to play the music at this slow a tempo, but
it made for a great speed for which Tabutea and Stern to work their magic.
I think Gould would be proud of such a pace. The faster tempo versions I've
heard add a sense of "busyness" to the violin and oboe lines that work
against the drama of the lines.
Listen to a version for two harpsichords for a very different interpretation
of the piece.
Great recommendation Bradley.
Bye,
Jim
