The press has praised the Bremer Barockorchester, stating:
The orchestra […] launched passionate fireworks of joie de vivre on the stage, as well as a soft musical cushion of sound… During all the Allegro parts of this concert one had the impression that the [BBO] “rocked” the Kurfürstensaal. The groove that the baroque music displayed here was so strong that the audience was immediately carried away. For this reason, they should have actually been called a “Baroque band” instead of a “Baroque orchestra”. - (Süddeutsche Zeitung) |
