Bach's solo cantatas are, in some sense, his only true cantatas, as the term comes from the Italian genre originally devoted to one or two voices. In any case, they offer a more contemplative, informal approach to Bach's religious music—a quality that allows us to hear a more intimate side of the American Bach Soloists on this lilting, beautiful recording. Features stellar vocal performances by counter-tenor Drew Minter (who sounds especially great) as well as bass William Sharp, soprano Julianne Baird, and tenor/Artistic Director Jeffrey Thomas.
