Recorded in 1991, this double CD is a landmark in Bach's discography: just last year French magazine Classica voted it the best recording of these beloved works in history, and one of the ten essential Bach discs. Savall leads his famous orchestra "Les Concert des Nations", featuring the cream of period performance specialists, including Fabio Biondi, Pierre Hantai, Marc Hantai, Alfredo Bernadini and more. Les Six Concerts des Brandenbourgeois, to use the French title from the original manusript, have long been among the pillars of the orchestral repertoire.
