Bach: Sonatas & Partitas Vol. 2

Description

Twelve years after a first volume, Chris Thile records a second set of Bach's Sonatas and Partitas for violin, with a decidedly more personal approach. This time, he allows himself liberties with the scores and chooses to perform them in places that matter to him, sometimes unexpected: Reservoir Studios and Tompkins Square Park in New York, the Farrell Recital Hall at Murray State University (Kentucky), and Blackberry Farm in Tennessee.Rather than trying to imagine whether Bach would have approved of his work, as he did for the first volume, Thile focused on making an album that reflects who he is and that he loves, convinced of the value of his own aesthetic choices.The result is here: Bach: Sonatas and Partitas, Vol. 2 fully bears the signature of Chris Thile.
