Canadian Music Store Music Reviews of Bach: The Four Lute SuitesMusic Review: A masterpiece
The playing is absolute genius, a tour de force of subtle shaping, phrasing, articulation and architecture. Williams must have been possessed when he made this, because its his best work, and almost otherworldly in perfection and grace. It has an inner pulse, a 'drive' if you will, that floats and dances, that has totally surrendered to the inner pulse of Bach. I can almost hear echoes of the best of Gould here in the boney, strident tone (but still warm in a strange way), rhythmic drive, and the total control over each voice. |
