Collection: Baroque Subcollection: CelloDavid Watkin (baroque cello)
Renowned cellist and interpreter of Baroque music David Watkin records the Cello Suites by J.S. Bach, rightly considered as the pinnacle of writing for solo cello. Juror of the Leipzig Bach Competition; former principal cellist of the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique & the English Baroque Soloists, as well as the cellist of the critically acclaimed Eroica Quartet, Watkin gives a captivating and truly individual account of the six suites, the result of decades of performing and studying these compelling and fascinating works.
The six Suites are recorded on gut strings and on two original historic instruments of note, including the unique five-string cello by Brothers Amati, dating from c. 1600, and a four-string by a likely pupil of Amati, Francesco Rugeri, dating from c. 1670. |

Subcollection: VoicesInstrumentarium Lipsiense (III)
Thomanerchor Leipzig
Leipziger Concert
Dorothee Mields, sopran, Gotthold Schwarz, bass
This is an exceptional kind of CD. Quoting from the work of Johann Sebastian Bach and his contemporaries, it tries to illustrate with its choice of pieces a few of the characteristic, but also some of the exceptional, Bach instrumental combinations. Special attention is brought to instrument makers from Bach’s Leipzig milieu, the illustrative pieces for which, when possible, use original instruments from the Musical Instrument Museum. This CD recording offers the unique opportunity, with the Ricercare a 6 (BWV 1079/5), of experiencing a Hoffman (Martin Hoffman, musical instrument maker) ensemble of five viola da gambas and a violin.The Leipzig Concert Ensemble are specialists of early music and play with historically correct instrumentations appropriate to each piece. |

Collection: Baroque Subcollection: LuteJohann Sebastian Bach himself did not play the lute. Could his lute music really have been played on the lute as specified - or was it intended all along for a lute harpsichord of the type found in Bach`s estate? Two of the suites of this recording are expressly stated „pour la Luth“ or „pour la luth o cembal“. However, some notes were not feature of the common solo instrument of the era, the 13-string lute with a D minor tuning. Axel Wolf performs Bach`s lute music on a 14-string archlute, a theorbo lute - an instrument which could well have been played by one of the Italians employed at the court orchestra in Dresden. This recording is full of tranquility and intimacy found by Axel Wolf prior to the recording in the little Johann Sebastian Bach.
Axel Wolf studied the guitar and lute under Hans Michael Koch. After attending master classes held by Nigel North and Hopkinson Smith, he also studied under Rolf Lislevand. Since completing his degree course in the guitar in 1986, Axel Wolf has taught at Hanover Academy of Music and Theatre. In 1988 he teamed up with Simone Nill (recorder) and Robert Sagasser (viola da gamba)to form the ensemble La Sfondrata. Four years later, La Sfondrata won a prize at the Festival of Early Music in Utrecht. Axel Wolf played the lute in a number of wellknown ensembles such as Musica Fiata (Cologne), Ars Antiqua Austria, and the London-based Gabrieli Consort &Players. Axel Wolf has appeared at numerous international festivals,including inBoston, Bruges, New York and Tel Aviv. Axel Wolf is a frequent guest at the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, performing under the baton of Harry Bicket and Ivor Bolton. He has also worked with conductors such as Peter Schreier, PaulMcCreesh,Lajos Rovatkay and Alan Curtis on opera, concert and CD productions. village church in Polditz/Saxony RK 2203 | edition raumklang | Total: 74:45 |
