4.0 out of 5 stars 1982 Digital Concertos and 1979 Analog Suites/Overtures Jan 30 1999
By HarryKerryJr
Format:Audio CD
An extremely brief sharing of information, my friends. This CD contains the 1982 DDD recordings of the Brandenburgs. Pinnock and his English Concert demonstrate why Mr. Pinnock is an early music GOD! A bit silly of me, I know. The infamous Harpsichord solo in Con. #5 is handled perfectly by Mr. Pinnock himself. It is the only recording in which the solo doesn't sound as if Bach had returned from a time warp suffering the after effects of some pills John Lennon persuaded Johann to try. However, BE WARNED: the four suites on this CD are ADD--That's right, ANALOG! I do wish our friends here at Amazon.com would somehow indicate so. If the analog recording is a problem for you, Mr. Pinnock has recored the suites in DDD along with examples of Bach's recasting them as cantatas, or perhaps more acurately, sinfonias, on another CD released, perhaps, in 1995. I highly reccommend that CD for the suites although I have not listened to the ADD recordings on this CD you are researching. Oh, and by the way, that 1995 CD is stupendous. Why? Because it's Trevor Pinnock, that's why

5.0 out of 5 stars A beauty. April 22 2004
By Michael Telles
Format:Audio CD
Like many baroque listeners, I'm a big fan of Trevor Pinnock. But even among a catalogue of such quality as Pinnock's, the Brandenburgs are special. As always with Pinnock, the orchestra is charged with concentration and joy, the sound quality is spectacular, and the harpsichord -- which can sound like rattling tin in a bad recording -- sparkles here in all the right places. This is one of my very favorite recording ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Bach! Jan 8 2001
By AB Angsworth
Format:Audio CD
This is the best set of Brandenburg Concertos and Orchestral suites that I have found! Pinnock has a great way of making the music sound how it would have in the Baroque era. Some of the reviews talk about analog and digital. I know exactly what they mean, and you can hardly tell the difference. I don't know if they're playing it off of a $30,000 system or what, but don't be deterred. These recordings are excellent and a must have for your music library!
