Description
Summary:The surroundings for this recording couldn't be any better: the majestic background of the Bavarian Alps, the tiny pilgrimage church called St. Servatius and the highly skilled Swiss cellist with Taiwanese roots, Wen-Sinn Yang. This is the centre stage for Bach's gorgeous Six Suites for Solo Violoncello (BWV 1007-1012) composed in 1720. Written during Bach's time in Köthen, the Suites are one of the most important series for this instrument and a big challenge for every cellist. Heaven and earth as well as the well-balanced combination of sacral and secular can be found in Bach's music. Wen-Sinn Yang's play can be characterized as technically at the highest level with a lovely, full sound and impeccable intonation. He penetrates completely the philosophical dimensions of the music he plays. Therefore it is possible for him to interpret the Suites in his very unique and accomplished way.
