(SE) eClassial: Bach for Japan (Fundraiser for Tohoku Relief Foundation Japan)

Contributed by Admin on Mar 10, 2012

Available from eClassical in FLAC 24, FLAC16 and MP3

BIS's Boss Robert von Bahr:
This is a very, very special release. The release date coincides with the passing of exactly one year since the terrible disaster in Japan. It was Masaaki Suzuki's idea to release this compilation in order to give solace to the victims of this disaster - the music has been especially chosen for this purpose, including some newly recorded material - and also to contribute to their physical well-being: all the royalties are going to the Tohoku Relief Foundation and BIS are matching that, penny for penny.
