J.S. Bach Orchestrated by Anton Webern Ricercar from "The Musical Offering"
Philharmonia Orchestra Christoph von Dohnányi
BBC Proms, August 2007 Royal Albert Hall, London
From a Proms concert review:

The result is a curious blend of 20th and 18th Century sounds, atonality constantly threatening to burst through the formality of Bach's fugue, rather like a monster in a sci-fi movie ripping off its human face to reveal the alien beneath..."
