This is the fourth installment of a Bach recording project by the young Bach player Hermann on piano, which he started with Camerata in 2012. Of the six partitas, this time three are recorded, from No. 2 to No. 4. Hermann’s fresh, intelligent, and passionate performances of Bach’s rich music and his joyful approach to this great art form have left a solid mark in the history of contemporary Bach recordings. This recording was made in 2016 at a richly resonant Italian recording venue using the famous Fazioli instrument. Year of Recording: June 2016 / Location: Italy
