Yo-Yo Ma plays Bach superbly
This is a very well-recorded CD of one of our generation's best cellists, Yo-Yo Ma. I must mention that I find the cello an amazing instrument, as its low register complements the higher strings. It can produce the most lovely tones, especially in a somber piece.
I have found this recording to be a bit like having Yo-Yo Ma in my living room, playing a recital for me alone. The selections make one feel contemplative and relaxed. This is a bit like meditation. The recording is well-miked, and this makes it all the more delicious.
The interpretations are thoughtful and sensitive. I think that a classical buff who likes Bach would find this a fine addition to his/her collection. If you like Bach cello solo work, you will be delighted with this CD.
