J.S. Bach: Solo Cantatas For Bass Bwv56. 82 & 158

A trio of Bach's devotional masterpieces from a vibrant young Dutch early-music ensemble and an exciting Australian baritone. This new recording presents the 3 great cantatas written for bass solo: Ich habe genung BWV82, Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen BWV56, Der Friede sei mit Dir BWV158. The mellow, deep and resonant sound of the voice inspired Bach to some of his most comforting and profound music.

Australian David Greco is one of the most exciting young baritones of today. He collaborated with Ton Koopman, Ivon Bolton and Richard Egarr, he sang at important festivals like Aix-en-Provence, Glyndebourne, and at the Theatre des Champs-Elysées and the Wiener Konzerthaus. This is the first recording of the Luthers Bach Ensemble, conducted by Tymen Jan Bonda, adhering to the Historically Informed Performance Practice.
