COMMENTAIRE COMPLET: VOIR PREMIER COMMENTAIRE ÉPINGLÉ
Nous savons que Bach ne dut pas être très satisfait de la manière dont fut exécutée sa plus grande oeuvre ce Vendredi Saint 1729; son memorandum nous le dit de façon très nette. Nous savons également que les musiciens de maintenant jouent dune manière tout à fait différente de celle de leurs collègues du XVII e siècle: nos instruments sont fabriqués, ajustés et joués tout à fait autrement; même nos chanteurs amateurs utilisent une autre technique vocale; et nous sommes tous aujourdhui très éloignés des méthodes dinterprétation entièrement spontanées des Leipzigois de Bach.
Nous ne pouvons espérer — et nous ne le voudrions pas dailleurs — exécuter la Passion selon Saint Matthieu comme elle fut entendue par les Leipzigois en 1729; nous pouvons seulement essayer de rendre la musique aussi proche que possible, après recherche et étude attentives, de ce que nous pensons être le voeu de Bach.
The two solo parts of the Concerto for two violins in D minor, performed by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach, have survived in Bach’s own handwriting. This autograph dates from around 1730, a few years after the composer had moved from Köthen to Leipzig. Bach composed most of his instrumental concertos in the period 1717–1723, while working at the court of Leopold von Anhalt-Köthen, but this work appears to be an exception.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on October 7th 2016 at the Muziekgebouw aan t IJ, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

“China’s premier interpreter of Bach”, is what International Piano Magazine called Yuan Sheng. A pupil of Solomon Mikowsky (Manhattan School of Music) and notably Rosalyn Tureck, Yuan Sheng extensively studied the performance practice of Baroque music. Equally at home at the harpsichord he has an instinctive feeling for the possibilities, sonorities and touch of the instrument at hand, so that “the listener might easily have imagined the composer at the keyboard” (Boston Intelligencer).
The title is misleading: the English Suites are more ‘French’ in character than the French Suites, which are more characteristic of the Italian style. ‘By design the composer is here less learned than in his other suites,’ remarked one early biographer, ‘and has mostly used a pleasing, more predominant melody.’ Just so, and the same is true of the pair of suites BWV 818 and 819 which fall outside the collection but belong with it in terms of style. To all of them Yuan Sheng brings considered tempi and precise articulation in the mould of Tureck. To Bach at his most uncomplicated, Sheng brings the virtues of simplicity and clarity.
Again Yuan Sheng draws the listener into his highly intelligent musical discourse, vibrant and moving, speaking through the medium of a modern Steinway piano.
