Cantata Series, Vol. 1: Solo Cantatas
composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, 1685-1750; performed by American Bach Soloists (American Bach Soloists, 2007), 1 hour 2 mins
Bach's solo cantatas are, in some sense, his only true cantatas, as the term comes from the Italian genre originally devoted to one or two voices. In any case, they offer a more contemplative, informal approach to Bach's religious music—a quality that allows us to hear a more intimate side of the American Bach S...

Features stellar vocal performances by counter-tenor Drew Minter (who sounds especially great) as well as bass William Sharp, soprano Julianne Baird, and tenor/Artistic Director Jeffrey Thomas.

"There's something about the openness of sound, the sheer quality of
music-making and the sense of connection between performers and composers that
makes this a very special recording. Its contents explore the world of the
Baroque chaconne, a secular dance form that became a staple of music for the
concert room and chapel. The challenge of creating a piece above a repeated bass
line certainly appealed to Bach, Purcell and the little-known Erlebach, each on
inspired, inventive form in the works offered here. The Bach Players ... reach
the music's emotional heart with tremendous conviction."
