(5 out of 5 stars) What better way to begin Bach for Relaxation than with Jesu, Joy of Man s Desiring. This CD is not dumbed-down Johann Sebastian Bach just because it advertises itself as relaxation music (which was my initial fear before purchase). Good orchestras and soloists perform the nineteen well-chosen chamber works, ranging from the deceptively simple Prelude in C from The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1 (Sviatoslav Richter, piano) to selections from the powerful Brandenburg Concertos.This is Bach in his most serene, mathematically perfect form. None of his mighty organ or choral works will disturb your contemplative mood as you drift through the sixty-eight minutes of this CD. I m usually asleep by track fifteen, the adagio from Concerto for Flute, Violin & Harpsichord BWV 1044. Another very good CD in this relaxation series from BMG RCAVictor is Cello for Relaxation.
