When this recording of Bach's St. Matthew Passion was made in May 2005, Helmut Müller-Brühl had been leading the Cologne Chamber Orchestra for 41 years. He led them first on modern instruments from 1964 until 1976, then switched them to period instruments, then switched them back again to modern instruments in 1987. The result is not schizophrenic but rather a wonderful combination of the brilliant color and glowing warmth of modern instruments blended with the historically informed performance practices of period instruments. The same could well be said of Müller-Brühl's approach to Bach's sacred masterpiece. A trained philosopher and theologian as well as a musician, his St. Matthew Passion skillfully combines religious rigor with musical drama, creating a performance that is both a clear articulation of the text and an overwhelming narrative. His soloists are all fine musicians, but they are better at acting and best at enunciating the words clearly and expressively.

W tym usłyszmy nagrania wspaniałych (i wciąż niedocenianych) sonat dla violi da gamba Bacha na organy, przesiąknięte niemiecką szkołą Rückpositiv. Użycie organów zamiast klawesynu w znacznym stopniu zmieniło interpretację muzyka: podtrzymywane brzmienie tonów organowych (w przeciwieństwie do szybko rozkładającego się brzmienia klawesynu) zwiększa napięcie harmonicznych, zwłaszcza dysonansów).
