The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center

J.S. Bach The Art of Fugue

The Orion String Quartet & Windscape

On December 4th, 2007, as the opening event in its December Baroque Festival, the Chamber Music Society presented J.S. Bach’s The Art of Fugue in an arrangement for string quartet and wind quintet performed by the Orion String Quartet (Daniel Phillips and Todd Phillips, violins; Steven Tenenbom, viola; Timothy Eddy, cello), and Windscape (Tara Helen O’Connor, flute; Randall Ellis, oboe; Alan R. Kay, clarinet; Frank Morelli, bassoon, David Jolley, horn). The New York Times called the ensemble “nine of the finest musicians on the society’s roster” and praised the arrangement for how it “served the work with unfailing musicality.”

On February 19th, Deutsche Grammophon releases this recording as a digital-exclusive as part of the label’s DG Concerts series of recordings. Bach: The Art of Fugue represents The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center’s 4th release on DG Concerts.
