The new CD of the trumpeter Joachim K. Schafer focuses on Bach and Dresden. Bach, who never actually worked at Dresden, had a close relationship with the Dresden court, and was influenced by the local preference for the Italian style. Bach adapted concertos by Vivaldi and Marcello, which Schafer again arranged for his Dresden Baroque Soloists. They play Bach's music in a chamber music formation, in which Schafer can show his great skills as a trumpeter, converting his instrument into an equivalent partner to the violin or the violoncello. Joachim Schafer is regarded as one of the leading trumpeters of his generation. He regularly impresses audiences and critics alike with his technical sovereignty, as well as his effortless, stylistically confident, and dynamically sensitive musical performance, which he uses to set high standards.
