Oh, no wonder I couldn't find it in the list of albums released by different performers, I was looking under Beethoven. DUH! I need to look more into Bach. I haven't looked into much baroque music.

I need to look more into Bach. I haven't looked into much baroque music. I'm becoming kind of obsessed with it... My current favourite baroque works are (in roughly temporal order) the Vespers by Monteverdi (if you want to count that as early baroque), some of the Psalms and Madrigals by Schütz, the Membra Jesu Nostri by Buxtehude, and the clavier Partitas, the first Clavier Concerto and the second English Suite, the St. Matthew's passion and the Art of Fugue by Bach. From the little I've seen of your taste, some of the six Partitas might be your cup of tea. Here's the energetic last part of the sixth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LftJ-J9XZ3Y

Here's my baroque collection:

Good selection! You just confused a few categories there.

Some more dazzling partita work, again a final movement of my favourite. Very groovy.

But, that said, quite a few of Bach's works seem to be far more fluid in categorization and instrumentation. Particularly The Art of the Fugue. Nobody even knows what that one's supposed to be performed by. Also, apparently, I put the "St. John Passion" in the Keyboard section and not the choral section and it's apparently too late to edit.

Nobody even knows what that one's supposed to be performed by. And that's very fortunate in my opinion, because it is a very different, but always stunning piece depending what it is played on. I linked the very meditative string + harpsichord version above, piano versions can be wonderfully nuanced and dramatic, the organ version is monumental,but I am also a huge fan of the Canadian Brass rendition, which gives it a more lush and Jazzy feel. The first time I heard it live was by a Saxophone quintet in a Gothic monastery. Unforgettable!

Quite the inspired performance
