Bach J. C. F.: Symphonies Nos. 6, 10 & 20

The three elegant and witty symphonies on this disc are delightful examples of the synthesis between mid-to-late 18th-century Italian and German musical styles which marks the transition from Baroque to Classical. The acclaimed Leipzig Chamber Orchestra has recorded Haydn’s The Seasons (8557600- 01), Mozart’s Davide penitente (8570231) and Requiem (8557728) as well as a series of Schubert’s Masses (8572114, 8570381, 8572279 & 8570764).
