So, this piece from 1983 is really something else. Directed by Klaus Lindemann, it’s a fascinating dive into Bach’s world, showcasing the Brandenburg Concertos alongside the Coffee Cantata. What strikes me is Harnoncourt's approach, using period instruments that give these works a unique texture, something you don’t often hear. The performances feel alive, almost conversational in their dynamics. The pacing is deliberate, allowing each note to breathe, while the visuals complement the music without overshadowing it. There’s an intimacy here, celebrating the 80th of Harnoncourt, and you can sense the passion in every frame. It's rare, and it feels special to finally see it in a collector's DVD set.
