 Making Some Shapes!

This recording is remarkable and pure inspiration in the way the phrases are bent into all manner of shapes I never expected to hear!

I can't stop listening to it, so I'll share it with you all as I'm generous: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnQzgpz36UU&feature=related

One of my handful of favorite pieces of music that I have listened to maybe a hundred or more times, but I have never heard it played like this. Beautiful. Thank you Chris.

and the flourishes from the basso continuo....absolutely beautiful, reminds me of the baroque guitar in Frank de Bruine's albinoni d minor concerto adagio. who might this oboist be?

Just wondering that myself - Heinz Holliger or Maurice Bourgue? I've just looked on Amazon but can't find this specific recording.

You can see where Jazz improvisation stems from - the continuo part having just the chords and the solo part being a blank canvas leaving the interpretation up to the players.

Just found out the oboist is Burkhard Glaetzner in this recording.

I guess it was one of his moments.
Burkhard Glaetzner is one the masters indeed.

They've wrongly titled it as being the 2nd movement of the oboe concerto based on BWV 1056 which is almost identical but finishes differently - it's the Sinfonia from Cantata 156 "Ich steh mit einem Fuß im Grabe".
