Working on the 2nd Suite, which is so radically different to the 1st Suite which I worked on a few months ago, I tried to forgo the light and weightless feeling I usually enjoy in Bach's music, opting instead for a more imperfect, vulnerable and raw soundworld, which, in my opinion, suits the more narrative characteristics of this Prelude. There are plenty of subtleties I wish were more audible, but with time I hope my interpretation will deepen.
Live audio recording of the Prelude of J.S. Bach's 2nd Suite for solo cello in D minor. Recorded in Thimister-Clermont (Belgium) on the 6th of March 2021 with the wonderful help of the sound engineer Nicolas Charloteaux!
