About
Bach on synths has been done before – Wendy Carlos’s much-loved Switched-on Bach notched up its 50th anniversary in 2018.
But Art of Moog is different. Looking more like a Kraftwerk gig than a classical concert, and with boundary-crossing audience appeal, the band is made up of some of the UK’s best harpsichordists and baroque specialists.
This is synth-Bach with completely new levels of insight.
‘It was a delightful hour spent revisiting the past… This re-creation of pioneering work – in spite of the attention to detail paid to Bach’s ornamentation informed by post-Carlos discoveries of performance practice – invited a lighthearted, joyous reaction.’
