This classic LP of the Bach Concertos was recorded when Menuhin was in his early 40s and in his prime and the LP has been newly cut at EMI’s Abbey Road Studios from the original stereo EMI Master Tapes.

The Bach A minor and E minor Concertos were recorded with the Robert Masters Chamber Orchestra and the Bath Festival Chamber Orchestra at London’s famous Kingsway Hall venue on the 7 & 8 October 1958, and the Double Concerto (with the legendary French violinist Christian Ferras) recorded on 8 July 1959.

Produced and engineered by Peter Andry and Robert Gooch.

Pressed on 180g vinyl to audiophile standards.

Featuring the original album artwork.

“The stereo balance is wonderfully successful, with Menuhin on the right in the solo concertos, so that he is the more clearly contrasted with the first violins, while in the double concerto the two players can be clearly differentiated all the time; in this sort of music stereo pays splendid dividends” RF, GRAMOPHONE, June 1960.
