It is evident in this recording that the four friends and pianists (Christoph Eschenbach, Justus Frantz, Gerhard Oppitz, Helmut Schmidt) above all else thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They had prepared carefully for the recording of Johann Sebastian Bach's Piano Concertos, and from the very first bar to the last, the Hamburger Philharmoniker orchestra too were inspired to contribute their full measure. This enjoyment is transmitted to the listener; this is the enjoyment Bach himself derived from his concertos - mature works full of dignity and understanding.
