An award-winning book about Bach's Cello Suites and the background of their composition and fame, this book i a delight in many respects. As it combines history and biography it provides a narrative that makes these well-known compositions come alive. The journey includes not only Bach, but Pablo Casals and the cello. It is a journey worth your investment of time as the resulting enjoyment will be exceptional. ( ) This book is partly a biography of Bach and Pablo Cassals, and partly a musical history. I really enjoyed the biographical aspects. The author was able to portray Bach and Cassals with depth and as more than brilliant musicians. I also enjoyed the story of the author's own discovery of the cello suites and his attempts to better understand them by taking cello lessons and joining a Bach choir. Like others, I found the structure (which mirrors the cello suites) a bit forced at times -- it necessitated some repetition and was, at times, disjointed. All in all, I enjoyed it more than I thought I would as I'm not a classical music fan. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Siblin weaves together three dramatic narratives: Bach's composition of the Cello Suites and the manuscript's subsequent disappearance in the eighteenth century; Pablo Casals' historic discovery and popularization of the music in Spain in the late-nineteenth century; and Siblin's own infatuation with the suites at the dawn of the twenty-first century.
