Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful recording of this marvelous Bach's masterpiece
I was very pleassed to hear this wonderfull recording of Neville Marriner of these marvelous Bach's masterpieces.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best modern instrument performances in my opinion
I think with the Brandenbergs, the deciding factor on which set to buy is whether you prefer modern instruments or period instruments. There are probably more great period instrument recordings (Trevor Pinnock and the English Concert is my personal favorite) to choose from than modern instrument recordings, but I think this is the best available modern instrument recording. You pretty much cannot go wrong with anything by Marriner and the ASMF, but this is truly one of their better recordings and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bach at his best
Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, like much of Bach's works, are very modern sounding pieces. That's what makes them so appealing. Although each movement is no more than a few minutes long, the melodies and form of each are well developed and gorgeous.

This recording is especially worth buying because Marriner and the Academy produce a well-balanced and well-played interpretation. The instruments are not period instruments, and I think that that adds to the overall flavor of this recording. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy to Enjoy
I am not a musician nor can I identify Bach's Brandenburg Concerto number one from number five. However, I am an avid listener and do enjoy classical music. I know how good the Academy of St Martin in the Fields is and what a great conductor Sir Neville Marriner is. Most of all, I can identify a real bargain when I see one and this CD qualifies as a great bargain.

Bach's concertos are relaxing and very enjoyable. The Academy performs under the sure hand of Sir Marriner at the highest level. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT VERSION
This version of EMI Classics "Bach: Brandenburg Concertos No 1-4" [with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields under the direction of Neville Marriner] is definitely one of the best in existence. I have listened to the Brandenburg Concertos since I was 11 years old in Germany and Switzerland. I never get tired of them. They are endless and tranquil.
