This may seem hopelessly old-fashioned now, but in the 1930s it was a revolutionary break from the elephantine big-band Bach of the day. Adolf Busch was an important violinist, leader of one the greatest string quartets, and founder of this chamber orchestra, anchored by members of his quartet. Flutes replace recorders, a Stradivarius substitutes for a violino piccolo, and Rudolf Serkin's piano for a harpsichord. The result is grand music-making, infused with warmth and humanity. There's a chamber music feel to it; a sense that each performer is responding to the others--a far cry from the glossy run-throughs we've become accustomed to. The dance-based movements have a nice swing and the slow movements, depth and feeling. Performance fashions come and go, but Busch's Bach will always endure. --Dan Davis
