J C BACH ~ CONCERTOS FOR KEYBOARD AND ORCHESTRA
“Halstead is a sensitive and sympathetic musician who brings this irresistible music to life with enormous charm. He allows Bach’s alluring melodies to unfold lyrically and without any unseemly chivvying or tweaking of contour and rhythm… A masterstroke. All strongly recommended.”
Gramophone, September 1999
The largest single project that PGM has managed to date is the complete orchestral music of JC Bach for CPO with Anthony Halstead and the Hanover Band. The recordings have attracted substantial critical acclaim.
