BBC Proms 2010 - [Bach Day] [MP4-AAC] (oan)
Prom featuring the music of JS Bach in arrangements for large orchestra,
live from the Royal Albert Hall. The concert, given by the Royal Philharmonic
Orchestra conducted by Andrew Litton, begins with thunderous reinventions by
Stokowski and Respighi of Bach's organ works. There are also arrangements of
Sheep May Safely Graze, Air on the G String and the popular chorale, Sleepers, Awake!
Bach's sonatas for solo violin and for viola da gamba are re-imagined by
