About "Double Concerto for 2 Violins, Strings, and Continuo in D Minor, BWV 1043 : J.S. Bach: Double Concerto for 2 Violins, Strings, and Continuo in D Minor, BWV 1043: I. Vivace" by David Oistrakh

Bach’s Vivace for two violins is a chase through a hall of mirrors—each line echoing, then overtaking the other. Oistrakh and company play with crisp, athletic joy. The counterpoint feels like conversation at a lively dinner: overlapping, urgent, never chaotic, always in thrilling agreement.
