Born in Moscow and now a renowned force in the contemporary classical scene, Bach's Cello Suites On Violin brings a unique voice to Bach’s masterworks. As the founder of Brooklyn Rider and a longtime Silkroad Ensemble member, this artist blends Bach’s precision with a folk-dance intuition that critics describe as feather-light and rhythmically alive. A 2024 MacArthur Fellow, this performer continues to push the boundaries of how Bach can sound on the violin. Whether revisiting the complete Sonatas and Partitas or presenting transcriptions of the Cello Suites, the performance emphasizes a fresh, dynamic approach to a timeless repertoire.
