I gladly draw interest to the website 'allofbach.com'.
It seems that this wonderful initiative is not well known.
Their aim is offering for free recent noncommercial videorecordings (in high resolution)
of many works of J.S. Bach. New titles appear weekly.
The interpreters are "young" Dutch or Flemish musicians, such as
organist Van Doeselaar and harpsichordist Pierre Hantai.
Many vocal works can be found there as well, such as lots of
cantatas, the Matthäus Passion and the Hohe Messe with
directors Jos van Veldhoven, Sigiswald Kuijken, a.o.
The vocal works are live recordings in, mainly, Dutch churches,
as do the organ recordings. The harpsichordists are playing
in their private homes.
The website is also offering interviews with the musicians during rehearsel.
All of Bach is an initiative of De Nederlandse Bach Vereniging founded
in 1921. One of its founders was Gustav Leonhardt's father.
For those who are unable to view the videostreams directly it generally is possible
to first download the mp4-file in the computer and play them afterwards.
Downloading is easy with help of the webbrowser Firefox using its
extension Video DownloadHelper.
