Title: Brandenburg concertos + Orchestral Suite #2
Review: It is a good recording from a good performers. Not sure if like concertos itself. It is a third and likely last attempt to understand why these concertos are so highly valued by the other people. There are some really good pieces of music, but not as good as let's say similar Orchestral Suites by the same ABO and Koopman.There is a another ABO / Koopman Orchestral Suites recording (CD and DVD versions) with all four Orchestral Suites (OS), and it is a remarkable performance. Suite #2 on this CD is pretty average, regardless that performers are the same. Bad mood? One too many drink? I do not know, but the difference is very significant. Buy this for BC and buy OS as a separate entity - you will pay a lot, but you won't regret.
