Johann Sebastian Bach: Sonata No.3 in C major for Solo Violin, BWV 1005 – Isabelle Faust (HD 1080p)
On Palm Sunday, April 5, 2020, the exceptional violinist plays Johann Sebastian Bach's Sonata No.3 in C major for Solo Violin, BWV 1005, in the empty St Thomas Church in Leipzig. In these unusual and challenging times, her Bach interpretation exudes calm and confidence. "In her concentration, the violinist acts like a medium through which this unique music reaches us today", says the NZZ about Isabelle Faust's interpretation of the Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin by Johann Sebastian Bach.

Accompanied by the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra under the baton of the great conductor Christoph Eschenbach, the award-winning French cellist Bruno Philippe performs Camille Saint-Saëns' Cello Concerto No.1 in A minor, Op.33. The concert was recorded at Hr Sendesaal, Frankfurt, Germany, on September 17, 2020. ✻ The first cello concerto has always been one of Saint-Saëns' most popular pieces, Casals choosing it for his London debut in 1905. Tunes abound, but not in any disorderly way: the main themes of the outer movements move upwards, the second themes downwards; if, that is, the opening cello motif can be called a "theme' – the composer's biographer Brian Rees refers to it as "an artefact rather than a melodious outburst".
