About
Johann Sebastian Bach composed timeless music for solo instruments and invented his own musical worlds for violin, violoncello, flute wonderful, pure architectural beauty. For his GENUIN CD, the saxophonist Arno Bornkamp has arranged solo sonatas by Bach, choosing a different register for each work by using the baritone, soprano and alto saxophones. The symbiosis between instrument and music seems ideal, and, guided by the principles of historical performance practice, the co-founder of the Aurelia Saxophone Quartet plays with great ease and flow.

Jan/Feb 2021
The Courante from the D-Minor Cello Suite is just lovely, bouncy in articulation...the following Sarabande is beautifully shaded, perfectly paced, and serious in character without ever falling prey to over-sentimentalization.But my favorite movement? The “Bourée anglaise” from the A-Minor Flute Partita. Here the lighthearted character of the movement is perfectly captured. At times my ears were completely deceived: Was that a saxophone or some type of oboe?
