Robert Tiso – Toccata and Fugue in D on Glass Harp
An evening pause: I posted a different glass harp performance of this Bach piece back in 2015. Apparently, it is a favorite of glass harp players. Each performance however has its own uniqueness.

Anne-Sophie Mutter – J.S. Bach’s Partita in D minor
Voces8: J.S Bach’s Jesus bleibet meine Freude
An evening pause: In English this is better known as “Jesu joy of man’s desiring.” Nick Deutsch is on the oboe and Alexander Hamilton is on the organ.

Reitze Smits – J.S. Bach’s Passacaglia in C minor
An evening pause: Performed live November 29th 2013 at the Lutheran Church, The Hague. There is something hypnotic about this. Watch and try to distinguish the different melodic lines produced by his feet vs his fingers.

Charles Mokotoff – Bach: Sheep may safely graze
An evening pause: Performed live November 13, 2010 in Springfield, Virginia. The aria might be one of Bach’s most beautiful, but the playing here is astonishing. Watch his fingers.
I also like the deeper meaning of the title: It is what we all should strive for: allowing people to live their lives in peace and joy.
