Bach: Six Suites For Solo Viola
The poetry and radiance of Bach's cello suites are transfigured in these remarkable interpretations by Kim Kashkashian on viola, offering "a different kind of sombreness, a different kind of dazzlement" as annotator Paul Griffiths observes. One of the most compelling performers of classical and new music, Grammy-winning Kashkashian is hailed as "an artist who combines a probing, restless musical intellect with enormous beauty of tone", and she brings to Bach revelatory commitment and intensity.
