Programme Note

Two major works for solo cello performed by a Dutch cellist whose repertoire runs from Bach to contemporary classics and who performs with equal relish on period and modern instruments. Thus far he has recorded the Bach suites on three occasions: BBC Music Magazine described his most recent recording as ‘a ground-breaking “must-buy” for every cellist and Bach-lover,’ while Early Music Review concurred: ‘this is a must-have set. And for so many reasons!’
