Bach did not write anything down about that in regards to the orchestral suites. As with most of Bach's secular instrumental works, it is more than likely that these pieces were performed one to a part. ESPECIALLY with the solo flauto traverso in this particular suite.

It's excellant that one can actually hear the harpsichord in this, as opposed to all those god-awful romantic style recordings completely devoid of any character with the rest of the oversized orchestra smothering the sound of the harpsichord.

The performance is NOT boring, NOT dry and academic, NOT overly flamboyant, but well thought out and done under Herr Koopman's guidance. I ONLY questioned the reasoning behind "one to a part" and some of you want my head on a platter. Artistic expression IS NOT about one person's dogma over another. After all, art IS in the end interpretive and not a "religious/political fanaticism". Western civilization is declining fast enough without all of us backbiting each other. SOLI DEO GLORIA.

Don't be jealous cuz he knows how to be old and live life to such a joy. Don't be jealous because he is so emotional and reactive to his work. Don't be jealous that he is not over thinking, and just living in the moment. Because you can do it too.

Indeed, and I have to restate the comment that this is not boring. Everyone has something to say about it it seems...so just open your eyes and realized that if you came all the way to make a comment, you were obviously not bored....or you would have just exited the page.

Why even think for 2 seconds about that? They tried, and they did it. Give them credit for their work. Only people who WANT to say something will say something about this...it's ridiculous. I am POSITIVE they could have found people, they are doing it on purpose for a reason. People like to try things out, and they find it fun. So just leave em alone if you wanna talk about how many people they used..chill out.

I also disagree. Koopman is in my opinion the best on Bach (ORGAN, ORCHESTRA, CHOIR, CHAMBER MUSIC et alium), and he knows vvery well what is the ideal sound effect an itensity.

The problem is that they're playing just one to a part. I really don't understand the justification for that. Bach wrote down himself what the ideal is for the number of instruments so why settle for one to a part? That's why the harpsichord may seem too loud in this performance.

Excellent performance, one of the best in French style.
