Christoph Richter cello
Alasdair Beatson piano

Completing his cycle of Bach Solo Cello Suites and Sonatas, Christoph Richter performs the two cello suites in the minor key, representing the more personal and tragic side of Bach’s compositions, alongside the uplifting Sonata in G major. 

For Bach, D minor is a key associated with religion, and at the end of the prelude he paints in sound the sign of the cross – an ‘Amen’. 

The C minor suite is the only one to feature a Prelude and Fugue, and the famous lone-voice Sarabande. 

The Sonata for Cello and Piano in G major, transcribed by Bach from a Trio sonata, presents a lighter contrast to the reflective mood of the solo Suites – bright, pastoral and serene.
