Music reviews of Johann Sebastian Bach: Partita No. 3, BWV 1006 For Unaccompanied Ukulele
Music Review: Ahh, Bach.
Rating: 5 Stars
I mean it. This isn't some look-ma-no-hands-Bach-on-a-uke novelty recording. It's the real deal, the ne plus ultra, an Everest of an accomplishment. As a musical interpreter John King is top-flight; as a technician on his chosen instrument, he is without peer. And this is pure Bach. Pure and simple. One man, one ukulele, one great recording.
When King plays, the Prelude to the First Cello Suite is a tightly wound spring that uncoils from beginning to end in one long, sinuous line. Flawlessly. The Gigue from the same suite is a toe-tapping terpsichorean treat. The Gavotte en Rondeau from the Violin Partita No. 3 has a freshness, as though King were improvising it with divine inspiration. This is an ukulele? None like I've ever heard. Possibly the ultimate musical oxymoron: the whimsical ukulele expressing Bachian profundities. Without a doubt, the Master would approve.

Description of Johann Sebastian Bach: Partita No. 3, BWV 1006 For Unaccompanied Ukulele
Recorded from 1996 to 1998 and released in 2001 Johann Sebastian Bach Partita No. 3 for Unaccompanied Ukulele and Other Baroque Masterpieces is the only ukulele recording to include a major work by Bach in its entirety: Partita No. 3, BWV 1006. Performed by John King, the leading proponent of performance in the campanella style. The campanella style is noted for a bell like quality of sound in which individual notes over-ring one another producing an effect very much like that of the harp. This is accomplished by playing each succeeding note in a melodic line on a different string. The ukulele adapts well to this style of performance due to its hallmark re-entrant (my-dog-has-fleas) tuning.Classical CDs
