Bach & Beyond Part 3

American violinist Jennifer Kohs Bach & Beyond Part 3 concludes her critically acclaimed series of recordings based on her groundbreaking, multi-season recital series of the same name that The New York Times has called indispensable. Koh, a virtuoso with quirky and wonderful ideas (San Francisco Chronicle), again pairs two of J.S. Bachs landmark Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin with Bach-inspired 20th- and 21st-century works. On this series-finale album, Bachs florid and fanciful Sonata No. 2 in A minor and Sonata No. 3 in C major, celebrated for its colossal Fuga movement, frame Luciano Berios expressive, chaconne-like Sequenza VIII and Pulitzer Prize winner John Harbisons alluring For Violin Alone, a dance suite inspired by Bachs partitas, written for Koh (a world-premiere recording).
