Bach: Cello Suites

Sollima, Giovanni

96390

Bach’s iconic solo suites form the pinnacle of the entire cello repertoire, the ultimate challenge and a Mount Everest every cellist has to climb, no matter how often that has already been done.

Italian cellist Giovanni Sollima has been living with the Cello Suites his entire musical life. The pandemic, the suspended time, the need to search for the essence of music came, and with that the need to record them. “After a few months I asked myself “will they be ready?” They weren’t, they aren’t and they won’t be... they change every day, your body changes, your breathing, your reaction times.”

Giovanni Sollima’s recording of the Cello Suites is a very personal statement, in which the message of the music is central, the message of eternity, of beauty, and of humanity.

Giovanni Sollima is one of the most original and foremost musicians of his time. He has collaborated with Riccardo Muti, Yo-Yo Ma, Ivan Fischer, Viktoria Mullova, Ruggero Raimondi, Yuri Bashmet, Katia and Marielle Labèque, Giovanni Antonini, Ottavio Dantone, Stefano Bollani, and with orchestras such as the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Moscow Soloists, Berlin Konzerthaus orchester, Australian Chamber Orchestra, Il Giardino Armonico, Accademia Bizantina, Holland Baroque Society and Budapest Festival Orchestra.
