 | | Description: | Bach Trios by Frank Peter Zimmermann, released 6 April 2017.
This version of Bach Trios comes as a 1xCD. - YO-YO MA/CHRIS THILE/EDGAR MEYER2017 release, an album of Bach works recorded by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, mandolinist Chris Thile, and bassist Edgar Meyer. The album comprises works by J.S. Bach originally written for keyboard instruments, plus one sonata for viola da gamba. In 2011, Ma, Thile, and Meyer-along with Stuart Duncan-collaborated on The Goat Rodeo Sessions, which won two Grammy Awards. The New York Times said of Yo-Yo Ma, who is considered one of today's foremost interpreters of Bach, "Other cellists hear Bach's suites the same as Mr. Ma, but few if any have the technical means to transfer their imaginings so precisely into sound." Ma maintains a balance between his engagements as soloist with orchestras worldwide and his recital and chamber music activities. His discography includes more than one hundred albums, eighteen of which have won Grammy Awards. Ma also serves as the Artistic Director of Silkroad, an organization he founded to promote cross-cultural performance and collaborations. More than eighty works have been commissioned specifically for the Silk Road Ensemble, which tours annually. Ma also serves as the Judson and Joyce Green Creative Consultant to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's Negaunee Music Institute and in 2016 was appointed Artistic Advisor to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.Recorded March 3-8, 2016, at TheBarn, Washington, MA.
? &© 2017 Sound Postings, LLC. under license to Nonesuch Records Inc., for the United States and WEA International Inc. for the world outside of the United States"Bach Trios" on CD brings together three extraordinary musicians--mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile, legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and master bassist Edgar Meyer--for a luminous exploration of Johann Sebastian Bach's music. With an intimate trio instrumentation and a chamber-music mindset, they transform Bach's trio sonatas and other works into living conversation, full of clarity, warmth, and rhythmic vitality. The recording balances historically rooted respect with modern freshness: lines are articulated with crystalline precision, but the phrasing breathes like improvised dialogue. The sound is both transparent and full-bodied, allowing every contrapuntal detail and every subtle dynamic shade to emerge. Whether in dance-like movements that sparkle with lightness or in introspective slow sections rich in singing lyricism, "Bach Trios" reveals Bach's timeless architecture and emotional depth in a new acoustic light that feels at once intimate and expansive.
The three artists come from different musical worlds--classical, bluegrass, and contemporary crossover--but meet here on common ground: an uncompromising devotion to musical narrative and ensemble listening. Their interplay is marked by spontaneous energy, perfectly balanced voicing, and a keen sense of structure, so that even the most intricate counterpoint feels natural and effortless. This CD is ideally suited both to seasoned Bach listeners who want to discover familiar works in a new sonic guise and to newcomers who seek an accessible but artistically serious entry into Bach's universe. High-quality production and detailed recorded sound make it equally at home on audiophile systems and everyday players. "Bach Trios" is a compelling example of how great music transcends stylistic boundaries when interpreted by artists at the height of their powers.
Chris Thile achieved international recognition as a mandolin prodigy, leading the progressive acoustic band Nickel Creek and later co-founding the genre-defying ensemble Punch Brothers. He is known for seamlessly blending bluegrass, classical, jazz, and songcraft, and has received multiple Grammy Awards as both soloist and ensemble member. Yo-Yo Ma is one of the world's most celebrated cellists, acclaimed for his expansive repertoire, emotional depth, and cultural projects such as the Silk Road Ensemble; he has been honored with numerous Grammys and some of the highest international arts distinctions. Edgar Meyer is widely regarded as a trailblazing double bassist, moving effortlessly between classical, bluegrass, and American roots music, and has earned prestigious awards and commissions that cement his reputation as a unique voice on his instrument. Together, their long history of collaboration and their individual achievements lend "Bach Trios" exceptional artistic authority and creative vitality.
