In this playlist, I try to balance the original Baroque Bach, and Bach as recomposed over the centuries. My intention is to include recordings by Bach specialists such as Glenn Gould or Andrew Manze, as well as explore the different ramifications of Bach’s music, specifically in the electronic realm.
The selected tracks are all close to my heart. I love the pure sound of the lute (and this particular interpretation by Konrad Junghänel) just as much as the ambient, layered organ samples by Sutekh. In a way they are very complementary. Yet they only begin to explore the possibilities, and potential, of Bach’s scores.
