Although Bach (1685-1750) clearly felt at home composing for the recorder, featuring it in major works including the Brandenburg Concertos and several cantatas, he never composed solo works for the instrument. However, Bach was an indefatigable recycler of his own works (and of those by others..), and in this light it might be pardonable for modern musicians to adapt some of Bach’s best works for their own instrument, especially when that instrument is the recorder, which was one of the most important melodic wind instruments up till Bach’s time. Recorder player Stefano Bagliano chose several works by Bach which he considers suitable for transcription for recorder and continuo: flute and trio sonatas BWV 1020, 1032 and 1039, two 3-part Inventionen, organ Choralvorspiele, and several fugues from the Kunst der Fuge and Musikalisches Opfer. Stefano Bagliano and harpsichordist Andrea Coen show their love for these eternal masterworks in these utterly convincing performances.
