Axelrod (b. 1960) … achieves his goal of developing the possibilities inherent in Bach's instrumental challenges to come up with a colourfully orchestrated cycle that does not contain a dull moment. … [E]asily approachable to audiences attuned to Axelrod's contemporaries like Jennifer Higdon, Ned Rorem and Richard Danielpour.
Meant to accompany their famous predecessors, there’s little in these variably scored fantasia / concertos other than their instrumentation which specifically recalls Bach. They are forthrightly modern and decisive, their prevalent massed chords and few tunes providing wide contrasts with their inspiration. Aleatoric moments contribute flexible textures that hide some repetition. Perhaps the cellular handling of notes and gestures suggests Martinů. Indeed, the dynamism and the textural interplay suggest that the Czech master might be more influential than the Cantor of St. Thomas. These fantasias are short and tantalizing.
