Integral de les Suites per a violoncel de J.S Bach (Primera part)

The complete performance of a legendary work from music history in homage to Pau Casals. Johann Sebastian Bach's six Cello Suites (BWV 1007-1012) are an indispensable element of the repertoire for this instrument and a set of emblematic pieces in music history, which were first introduced to audiences worldwide by the Catalan master Pau Casals. Arnau Tomàs, well known as a performer and founder of the most international Catalan ensemble, the Quartet Casals, proposes the order of interpretation of the six suites based on minor and major keys, to obtain the maximum contrast of light and character between the pieces. The first concert begins with the famous first suite in G major, followed by the darkness of the fifth in C minor and ending with the third, in C major. The second concert begins with a more exotic key, such as E-flat major, continues with the modest second suite in D minor and the brilliant sixth suite, ending in D major.
