Are you ready for a Bach-filled holiday season?

In summary, BBC will be playing the full works of J.S.Bach from 16th to Christmas, with the option to listen live through streaming audio. This follows the success of a similar initiative with Beethoven's symphonies. In Belgium, there will be a similar event for Mozart's repertoire in 2006. The website also offers a link to the music recordings and the hosts are fans of the group Musica Antiqua Koln but are disappointed that recordings by Paul McCreesh and the Gabrieli Consort & Players will not be included.

they're playing at least 2 different recordings of the d minor partita for violin, i thought they would play everything only once. i also noticed that they're playing reinhard goebel & his musica antiqua koln's recording fo brandenburg concerto #6; they should get as much air time as possible. that's one of my favourite groups. they aren't playing any recordings by paul mccreesh & the gabrieli consort & players though.

Marvellous. They did the same with Beethoven's symphonies and that was a hughe success. An analogue initiative is taken here in Belgium, where the entire Mozart repertoire will be played on national radio because of the upcoming Mozart-year 2006.
Great link, thanks
