BACH, J.S. - The Six Cello Suites (Kim Kashkashian) (Sealed) (2CD)

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.
