Description
Those elusive qualities of transcendental beauty paired with an enchanting simplicity, eloquently glossed by Alban Gerhardt in his booklet note, might also be said to characterize his playing in this outstanding new recording.
“Gerhardt can sound deliciously at ease in this music, whether moving with swift grace through a Sarabande or skipping with jaunty assurance through a Menuet or Gavotte. And his sound is gloriousa silvery tenor register (especially in the high-lying Sixth Suite) capping an overall tone that is rich without ever being overbearing in his own personal way Gerhardt is no less a master” Gramophone (Editor’s Choice
