Bach: Cello Suites

Mstislav Rostropovich was renowned not only as one of the great instrumentalists of the 20th century, but also as an outspoken champion of artistic freedom in the Soviet Union during the last decades of the Cold War. Rostropovich was often credited as the man who enriched the standard cello repertoire more than any cellist before.As a cellist, Rostropovich is noted for his commanding technique and intense, visionary playing. He played a vast repertory that included works written for him by some of the 20th century's greatest composers. He dazzled listeners with both his richly personalized int... [Read More]

3 LP | Triple-Gatefold | 180g vinyl Sony Classical is proud to announce the release of Yo-Yo Ma's new album Six Evolutions Bach Cello Suites, his third and final recording of these works. Bach and his Cellos Suites entered Yo-Yo Ma s life when he was four, when he learned the first measure of the Prélude to Suite No. 1 under his father s instruction. Ma has never lost his initial fascination. "Bach's Cello Suites have been my constant musical companions," Ma writes of the music. "For almost six decades, they have given me sustenance, comfort and joy during times of stress, celebration and los... [Read More]

Bach: Cello Suites

Cellist Zuill Bailey releases his Bach Suites for Solo Cello on February 2, 2010. All six suites were recorded in one week at the American Academy of Arts and Letters in New York City in December, 2008, following years of preparation by Mr. Bailey. "I was unaware of the depths of the music as a young person, but came to realize that there are so many ways of interpreting Bach that it channels where a cellist is at that precise moment. It has become such a personal journey for me." Zuill Bailey performs on a 1693 Matteo Gofriller Cello, formerly owned by Mischa Schneider of the Budapest String ... [Read More]

Bach: 6 Suites for Cello, BWV 1007-1012

Anner Bylsma, who plays a Baroque cello in original condition, has written a whole book about the variety of bow strokes needed for this music. Fancying the use of the bow as an analogue to the use of a foil in a duel, he calls Bach a "fencing master," a term that implies intense training, physical coordination used with spontaneity, and a readiness to change the approach instantly as each successive, fast-moving challenge demands. His playing makes the music fresh and new with a flexibility and vitality that illustrates the thesis of his book. --Joe McLellan

Bach, J.S.: Cello Suites

Over the years, Bach s Cello Suites have become a monument to which all cellists pay homage. Though some of the greats waited until late in their careers to record them, (Casals, Rostropovich), others have recorded several versions (Yo-Yo Ma and Pieter Wispelwey two, Janos Starker three). Ophélie Gaillard is among the latter group. Her first recording earned international praise and a French Classical Music Award. Ten years later, she revisits Bach s masterworks performing on a cello made in 1737 by Matteo Goffriller, a contemporary of the composer.

Bach-6 Solo Cello Suites

Today it is difficult to understand that despite the tremendous Bach renaissance that took place in the 19th century many compositions by the Cantor of St. Thomas's Church in Leipzig had been underrated. The Cello Suites, for example, have been regarded for almost 300 years as purely a set of tricky etudes that every virtuoso in the making simply must tackle. What recording engineers and their equipment can bring to the ears is quite astounding. So it was back in the Thirties with Pablo Casal's legendary recording against which every cellist is measured today and to whose perfection he aspires... [Read More]
