Trifonov, Daniil | Bach The Art Of Life | 2CD

His sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra and solo instruments brought the Baroque genre to its maturity, and he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique. From 1723 until his death he was Thomascantor at Leipzig.
