+ Description

To adapt his own music to other uses was the most natural thing in the world to Johann Sebastian Bach. When the arrangement is by another person, one must always satisfy oneself that it was done with good taste, Mischa Maisky points out, and then boldly puts his own head on the block with reference to his recital.
