{"product_id":"bach-mass-in-b-minor-22","title":"Bach: Mass in B minor","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwenty years after the Orchestra of the 18th Century's first engagement on tour with Bach's Mass in B minor - a work which has for so long captivated the inquiring mind and interpretative insights of Frans Brüggen - a new tour was conceived through which to provide a fresh view of the piece. Setting down a recorded view during its tours has always been key to this orchestra's musical expression and last year the opportunity was taken with Bach's masterpiece: the occasion was an exciting concert in the Polish capital of Warsaw - a city and a country with whom director and orchestra have long and treasured memories. A quintet of soloists and the choral forces of Cappella Amsterdam give voice to Brüggen's deep and experienced reading of a work for a recording which Glossa now is releasing, in association with the orchestra's aptly-named organization, The Grand Tour. Accompanying the CD set is a booklet essay from David Vickers which provides a scholarly and eminently-readable account of the social as well as the musical background to the composition of the individual parts of a piece whose unity has provided the world with one of its greatest works of musical art. This new recording is more than a 20th anniversary celebration, reflecting as it does Frans Brüggen's lifelong desire to understand and project the work of this extraordinary composer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glossa","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49710295286040,"sku":"8424562211124","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/2354719.jpg?v=1747146058","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/bach-mass-in-b-minor-22","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
