About
Soprano Gillian Keith joins the acclaimed Baroque ensemble Armonico Consort under Christopher Monks for the first release in a three disc series featuring the solo cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Bach’s cantatas hold a special place amongst performers and devotees of his music. Whether sacred or secular, these works provide incredible variety for listeners and players alike. Some contain elements of storytelling similar to arias and recitatives from his great Passions; many have instrumental movements and solo passages that rival any of his concerti, and are indeed borrowed directly from some of the most famous. Not surprisingly, Bach’s cantatas are often incredibly virtuosic, demanding as much technical ability, style and understanding of the music as any of his other works.
This first release features the cantatas nos. 82a, 202 (the famous “Wedding Cantata”) and 210.

Reviews
"Keith's light, poised voice is heard to good effect here ...this lightness of texture engenders real clarity, helped with a generally impressive one-to-a-part ensemble... there is no doubting her commitment true in the delightful wedding cantata O holder Taf erwunschte Zeit, one of Bach's longest, which sustains attention throughout. Excellent sound ..."
Guy Weatherall – Classical Music magazine – September 2017
"Gillian Keith's brilliantly light soprano paired with this top-class period ensemble makes for a delightful disc. The bright and brilliant Wedding Cantata is a particular highlight, thanks to the ease with which Keith negotiates Bach's tricky vocal runs." ****
Elinor Cooper - BBC Music magazine (Brief Notes section) - August 2017
