Description: | Lemniscate - Bach: The Art Of Fugue is an album by New Collegium / Claudio Ribeiro, released in 2023. The album is a classical CD. - .. ART OF FUGUESurrounded by a certain air of mystery and revered as a relic, The Art of Fugue is roundly praised for it's complex, mathematical nature. However, these works are also movingly lyrical, and deserve to be enjoyed for their pure beauty, just as one enjoys the rhythms and sounds in the words of a poem, regardless of form and sometimes even meaning. Following the last version of J.S. Bach's autograph manuscript, New Collegium champions in "Lemniscate" the reconciliation and celebration of all these aspects, bringing to the fore both the cerebral brilliance as well as the emotive intensity of this iconic masterpiece, allowing it to be both light and profound. The rich instrumentation of woodwinds, brass, strings and harpsichord allows for expressive characters to be exaggerated, hints at other musical styles, and paints diverse atmospheres, infusing fantasy and life into these twenty fugues and canons.Recorded 6?8 October 2022 at Westvest90, Schiedam (The Netherlands)
