Bach: Six Suites for Viola Solo Bwv 1007-1012

This new recording presents Bach's 6 Suites for unaccompanied cello BWV 1007-1012 in the arrangement for viola solo, made by the artist Simone Libralon. He comments on this: "Bach's Suites BWV 1007-1012 are, unquestionably, among the most important works composed for an unaccompanied string instrument. Their extraordinary compositional quality means they can assimilate, with remarkable adaptability, to the full range of taste and style associated with any historical and artistic

period. The way they can lend themselves to differing interpretations ensure they always exercise a "contemporary" appeal. This recording is the result of a long period of study, concerts and research that led me to develop my own style hand-in-hand with establishing the character of this work."

Simone Libralon plays with great intensity, a fluent rhetoric and rhythmic flexibility.
