Album Description
THREE-TIME GRAMMY AWARD-WINNER THOMAS QUASTHOFF PRESENTS HIS SECOND VOLUME OF BACH CANTATAS Thomas Quasthoff makes a welcome return to the music of Johann Sebastian Bach with a collection of the "Dialogue" Cantatas BWV 49, 57, and 152. Quasthoff's last Bach Cantatas album, also with the Berliner Barock Solisten, was hailed by the press and brought the artist numerous awards, including his third Grammy award as "Singer of the Year" in 2006. That album has sold more than 50,000 copies worldwide! For this new collection, Quasthoff is joined by the acclaimed German soprano Dorothea Roeschmann, with whom he has enjoyed a close collaboration for many years in various types of repertoire. Critics and audiences alike have applauded the emotional directness of Quasthoff's performances.

Bach at his Best March 28, 2008
Tim Palmer (Toronto, Canada)
This is a wonderfully fresh sounding collection of Bach cantatas that will charm and delight - impressively conceived, artistically arranged, and beautifully sung by Thomas Quasthoff and Dorothea Roeschmann. You will definitely keep this disc at the top of your collection.

As a lover of Bach cantata, I am appreciated in this album and expect to listen the cooperation of Thomas Quasthoff and Dorothea Roeschmann. In most of bach cantatas, it's important to balance the performance between conductor, orchestra and singers. It's clear that this album of dialogue cantatas, offer a good chance to Quasthoff, show expressive skills and warm voices, even Quasthoff isn't famous of bach music.
However, these 3 cantatas they are worth listenning again and again, and I believe you will get more, enjoy a different style of bach.

Although world renowned today in a wide range of music, Thomas Quasthoff had a slow rise to stardom and psent many early years as a Bach spe;cialist. DG has been slow to include that part of his repertoire, but now we have two CDs of cantatas, this new one being for two singers. There are only two actual duets, in Cantatas 152 and 49, but the two soloists trade arias and sometimes join in recitative. Compared to the first CD of solo cantatas from Quasthoff, this material is much less well known but equally inspired. Roschmann is expert and lovely, a good match for Quasthoff, but clearly its his show, and without a doubt he is a great artist. My only slight reservation is that the voice isn't as full and easy as it was five years ago, but that's insignificant when it comes to a unqiuely communicative artist.
