By transcribing its haunting Sinfonia for two pianos, György Kurtág gave the early ‘Actus Tragicus’ funeral cantata by Bach a second life. He was only following good Bachian practice, which was to make the best of what was available to him. In his sinfonias, Bach often reused movements from previously composed longer instrumental works - some of them now lost in their original, others still very much with us, such as the Brandenburg Concertos. When adapting the first movement of the Third as the opening gambit of BWV174, Bach added wind and a pair of virtuoso horn parts with a flair and audacity that would make most modern transcribers quail. The album ends with a much straighter transcription of the exuberant hunt music for the horn-led first movement to Brandenburg No.1 repurposed as the Sinfonia to BWV52.

In the Kingdom I want to be for the eternity of my being, Johann Sebastian Bach is my Lord... In the Heaven I want to go, every pursuit of Happiness starts with falling in love with Bach's music... In the Religion I want to be a loyal follower, Love for Bach's music is the #1 Belief they preach... The joy, the passion, the glory, the harmony, the beauty, the elegance... as touching and elating as I can possibly feel everyday in this earthly life of mine, all as I have come to appreciate in the music of Bach after my 3 decades journey of music loving, has made my earthly life all the more enjoyable and myself all the more a grateful man...

[@lindacowles756]

G'day, Classical Concerto! As fond as I am of J.S. Bach's music, my Lord is Jesus Christ, the same Lord of Bach. To Him, Bach dedicated the music he wrote for the glory of God. If you truly want to live eternally in heaven, you need the salvation of the same Lord Whom Bach worshipped.

beautiful interpretation, perfect tempo, registration, articulation, ornaments, performance, and sound engineering - thank you for sharing this gem of divine geometry! Bach is the absolute summit, unbeatable creativity, counterpoint-contrast and futurism.

[@luizfernandolessa1889]

Concordo. Boa tarde. É a música germânica tocada com a perícia oriental e a inteligência italiana ( se não me equivoquei) nos trazendo algo que nos eleva deste mundo difícil. É como um presente do Deus que tudo nos dá a seu tempo, até seu único Filho. Bach não buscou pactos com seres espirituais para ser grande, e quando li sua biografia, nem mesmo com Deus. Ele aproveitou seu aprendizado vindo da família e continuou estudando. Eis o resultado. Saudações do Brasil.

Qué grandioso don de la Vida es poder como Bach, hablar el idioma de la música como si estuviera hablando su lenguaje materno, y expresar todos los sentimientos de nuestra alma en el pentagrama. Tantas notas y tan armónicas, me imagino como escribir en prosa un cuento majestuoso nunca más repetido. Grandioso compositor que se acercó a Diós más que otros.

Thank God for Bach. His music makes up fot a whole host of miseries that passes for “music” these days. He was as poor as a church mouse but unlike today money is not what motivated him.

[@agilbosco]

he was a rich man.

[@Jalapablo]

Bach wasn't poor, but he wasn't rich either. He drew a regular salary as the director of music for the city of Leipzig. He depended on fees he would receive from playing funerals and other events.

[@agilbosco]

@@Jalapablo in his condition, he was not poor. of course, he was not a nobleman. and had to work to earn his living.

He was a working musician, seven days a week for various churches.

How sad that Bach lived in such a small circle, can you only imagine that London would have had access to Bach's music at the time? He would had found employment and great orchestras rather than struggle with the hateful, simple minded city of Leipzig. Yet, despite all obstacles Bach wrote the best music from the Baroque era.

[@joeberna]

Bach is God on the earth

[@lindacowles756]

G'day, Joe Berna! Sorry to disappoint you, but Bach is not God on the earth, in heaven, or anywhere else. Bach himself worshipped the one, true, living, and holy God to Whom he dedicated his compositions.
