Johann Sebastian Bach – Bach: 6 Suites For Violoncello BWV 1007-1012 DVD –  

A winning combination for this recording is provided by the majestic background of the Bavarian Alps the tiny pilgrimage church of St. Servatius and the highly skilled Swiss cellist with Tawianese roots Wen-Sinn Yang. This is the centre stage for Bach’s gorgeous Six Suites for Solo Violoncello composed in 1720.Written during Bach’s time in Kothen the Suites are one of the most important series for this instrument and a big challenge for every cellist providing a well-balanced combination of sacral and secular music.Wen-Sinn Yang’s play can be characterized as technically at the highest level with a lovely full sound and impeccable intonation. He penetrates completely the philosophical dimensions of the music he plays. Therefore it is possible for him to interpret the Suites in his very unique and accomplished way.
