dwbasement Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Bach unaccompanied cello suits after hearing Peter Whisperwey sp!? live ive been watching for other versions 1 Slava Gregoyian now has all 6 available on 2 CDs 5 on tenor guitar (apparently it's now believed the 6th was not written for the cello?).the second cd was released this week. Not available on vinyl but .... 2 Yesterday I found the Bach solo cello suites by Enders on vinyl 3 LPs for $50 free delivery from get CDs au in Kentucky, they usually take about 10 days to deliver. Enders seems to get good reviews, they might all be from his mum, at that price it's a worthy buy. The Starker equivalent is $160 plus shipping., too much for a retirees wallet Wispelwey is great, I have all his three recordings and saw him twice playing the suites in Syd, unforgettable! Enders is good but not as great as like Starker, Rostropovich, Wispelwey and Isserlis..etc in saying that I enjoy Enders as well as many other cellist. The suites are such great music that give musicians unlimited interpretation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @djb I succumbed and ordered this on Friday and it arrived just now. A fair bit of cover ring wear as the three LPs are shoved into a gatefold but so far sounds really good.

I reckon they are all unique and it is subjective.I would listen to Wispelwey when I need a lift, listen to Casals at night on my vintage TT, faster tempo ones at work...etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djb Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) @Citroen well done! im not expecting mine for a few more days Reading Enders reviews he doesn't play them in the traditional 1>6 order! Rather he orders them ....... back in a minute ........ sorry nonogeneria and innumerate had to check my notes ".order the Suites by way of what he sees to be their harmonic progession (V, II, IV, III, I, VI). is this the order on the LPs?

djb Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 @jazzdog@groovemasters Don't know standings Many ppl think yo yo Mah a bit stilted and boring I'd agree by istening to the cds.

Enders is the "young Turk" already recorded them more than once principal cellist of a major Deutsche symphony orchestra aged 20! Yo yo ma's other recordings (inspired by Bach) is actually not bad when watch the dvd.Try Isserlis recording too, each suite sort of has its own theme or program whatever you call it...and it also has recordings of three other version of the suite no.1 prelude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. @djb is not to be trusted on matters of his longevity, but I can definitely confirm that it’s a good few years since his age had an 8 in front. I doubt that klaviers were even well tempered when he got his first TT. I’d like to be able to say he doesn’t look his age but, well ...
