Bach: Cello Suites

Description

“There may not yet be as many recordings of Bach’s cello suites as there are stars in the sky, but there are certainly just as many ways to interpret this monumental music, both in performance and on a philosophical level.” Anastasia Kobekina’s career has been gaining momentum since she received the Leonard Bernstein Award in 2024 as well as an Opus Klassik, and with the release of the full documentary “Jetzt oder nie !” broadcast by ARD. By taking on all six of Bach’s suites for solo cello - an Everest for cellists - she seeks to open “a shared space for interpretation, mine and yours.” As with her previous album on Sony Classical, the highly acclaimed Venice, Anastasia Kobekina promises a fresh approach to familiar music. She plays period instruments, bringing a historically informed perspective to these iconic works. The works themselves represent the composer’s most inwardly concentrated and revered music. Each is made up of a prelude followed by a suite of dances. What adds to the iconic status of these suites is the mystery surrounding their creation. No autograph manuscript exists - only a copy in the hand of Anna Magdalena Bach, the composer’s second wife - while the original recipient of these works remains unknown.
