JS Bach: Cantatas, Scholl

There was something delicious about the opening of this album. Some recordings have it, some don’t and this one really does. Don’t worry about the fact that Andreas Scholl is possibly one of the greatest counter tenor currently living, the orchestra murmuring under his soaring voice are deserving of just as much praise. In the past I will admit that I’ve found Bach Cantatas quite dry and not particularly appealing. This recording has changed my mind completely and I look forward to listening to this recording repeatedly over the next few months.
