Description

Ton Koopman is not only one of the great fathers of the Baroque-Renaissance revival in the 1970's, but a true pioneer of our time. After completing the Bach Cantatas survey, was he awarded the Bach Prize 2014 by the Royal Academy of Music. The prize is awarded to outstanding individuals in the performance and scholarship of Bach's music and none could be more worthy than Koopman, who has been noted as doing "remarkable work promoting Bach's music in the last thirty or so years. " Koopman's endless curiosity in music and performance research has this time turned his attention to a world premiere recording of Buxtehude's complete works. Dieterich Buxtehude is considered by many to be the most important figure in German Baroque music, after Johann Sebastian Bach. The importance of such a composer is reiterated by the well- known anecdote, which tells the story of 20-year-old Bach walking four hundred kilometers to listen to Buxtehude playing in Lubeck in 1705. In a world-first, Koopman has recorded Buxtehude's Opera Omnia including Vocal Works (Cantatas, Concertos and Arias), Organ and Harpsichord Works (played by Ton Koopman on historical instruments), Chamber Music (Sonatas and Trio sonatas). This box set collection is an incredible achievement in the Baroque discography, a milestone which will remain a reference for many years to come.

    • Think carefully about this
Bach is one of my three or four favorite composers. I have many recordings of every work. And when this series started I bought several of the organ disks and listened to the vocal stuff......As to Koopman...i have four sets of the complete Cantatas. When I started collecting koopman's cycle of cantatas i had to stop due to the shrillness and sparseness of the performances. His approach to Baroque music has often been too austere...Strange as his early Bach organ works were magnificently done. (His first cycle of bach organ works on five disks is much different fromthe complete cycle he later did) Bach did travel some long distance by foot to meet Buxtehude.....but it was for a job which he did not get. Afterwards he left and never referred to Buxtehude again. I dont see any connection between the two musically. I have three cycles of Buxtehude complete organ works....and they pale next Bach. I have spent hours studying the organ works of Buxtehude...I dont see what Bach could have seen in it. Buxtehude is middle Baroque. His chamber works are likewise dull and bereft of melody. Anyway, as to koopman's traversal of the organ works...it did not change my mind. I cant see why Buxtehude is considered important for his organ works and chamber works. As to his vocal works...those that I sampled are also very sparsly instrumented and weak on real melody or interesting development. So much different from Bach. Maybe someday I will hear something worth while. Anyway, I am writing this so that someone unfamiliar with Buxtehude does not foolishly think he sounds anything like Bach. He simply does not. ... show more
