Internationally renowned violinist Isabelle Faust and keyboard player Kristian Bezuidenhout, one of the most versatile and exciting musicians of our time, join forces to perform Bach sonatas for violin and harpsichord, plus repertoire from Biber, Froberger, and others. A former student of Malcolm Bilson, Kristian is a regular guest soloist on fortepiano, harpsichord, modern piano with the world’s leading ensembles. Likewise, with “clarity, gutsy depth, and technical brilliance,” Faust performs as soloist with the world’s leading orchestras and in recital at the premiere concert halls (San Francisco Classical Voice).
“Faust and Bezuidenhout played these sonatas a lot in concert before taking them into the studio and it shows – both in the detail and the trust that allows for real risk-taking....[They] bring these sonatas alive without recourse to gimmickry...It’s an eloquent and beautifully recorded homage to the composer and demands to be in the collection of all Bach lovers post-haste.”
