In between the battling forces of order and rebellion probably lies that elusive ideal we call happiness. For us, that balance of pleasures is found above all in Bach, especially the Orchestral Suites, with their blend of French dance, Italian virtuosity and German tradition, which we perform here alongside other celebrated works including the Concerto for Two Violins.
