The Dutch reed quintet Calefax present a collection of 'Musical Offerings' from Johann Sebastian Bach, arranged by the ensemble's saxophonist Raaf Hekkema. Arthur Klaassens joins the ensemble on a lupophone and english horn for 'Musikalisches Opfer', the main course of this programme, as well as for the '14 Canons, BWV1087', further expanding the ensemble's sonic palette. The album concludes with Bach's 'Canonic Variations on Vom Himmel hoch, BWV769', a piece full of allusions to Christmas-related Bach pieces, including references to his 'Christmas Oratorio'.
