About "Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D Major, BWV 1068 : J.S. Bach: Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D Major, BWV 1068: II. Air "on the G String"" by Berliner Philharmoniker

Bach's Air on the G String, under Karajan, becomes a slow, luminous descent. The melody hangs in the air like a thread of gold, each phrase a breath held too long. Serenity and a faint, exquisite ache intertwine—beauty so pure it almost hurts.
