Hello guys and gals!
This is a thread where we can discuss the abundant library of J.S. Bach orchestral transcriptions by various composers and conductors. And of course we can discuss about recordings.

Usually Leopold Stokowski's name pops up in this case, because he has the most Bach orchestrations by any other. He has 36 orchestrations for J.S. Bach works, plus 3 for Band.

Actually 2 discs that I enjoyed very much, are the following.
Impeccable recordings! The engineers have triumphed!

I really love the digital recordings for Bach orchestral transcriptions.
Too bad this CD is unavailable at amazon...
