Thanks for sharing! I have the Bob van Asperen recording, which is similar to this one, and while I do like the straight-up cantata version, I appreciate that a couple of folks out there have completed reconstructions of BWV 1059 incorporating the fragment we do have with those 32nd-note runs--and syncopations! Now if only someone would PUBLISH this...I'm surprised Barenreiter hasn't done so already. Been thinking about arranging this myself for years.
Wrong score--this is from the organ version, the sinfonia to Cantata BWV 35. BWV 1059 is what's playing, and the repeated note motive is transformed into runs.
Allegro(1st mov) - Concerto in D Minor BWV 1059R ("R" stands for reconstructed) for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach.This piece is based on cantata BWV 35.
@bussinez Actually, BWV 1059 is playing--including the first seven or eight bars, including the characteristic runs in place of the broken arpeggios of BWV 35/I.
@bersa888 I completely agree. I'm using the Oboe Concerto of this particular piece for an audition and as I listen to it again and again, I hear Albinoni in this piece quite a bit. Albinoni is my favorite composer.
Great! I have this cantata with Herreweghe and I didn't know about this concerto, until I heard this same version on the radio recently. I have two complete recordings of these concertos, with Pinnock and van Asperen/Leonhardt, but I think this concerto isn't included in any of those recordings. I used to own a Naxos CD with this an oboe concerto! The Herreweghe version is superb, with a propulsive rythm, and a precise organ playing. But this one is also great, Leonhardt never disappoints me.
I love you Bach!

The recording varies from the score so much that it's hard to follow along.

The ritornello is the closest Bach ever came to sound like Albinoni...

Genius piece, but not a splendid performance or interpretation. This one sucks.

I love this interpretation.

Good performance. The soloist demonstrated viruosity. However, I could have stood for a little more improvisation with the continuo line...
