Plucked Bach - Alon Sariel

Met Plucked Bach I,II & III lets Alon Sariel hear how surprisingly Bach can sound on mandolin and related instruments. Well-known works for violin, cello and keyboard get a new, intimate form. Arlon Sariel plays with nuance and precision and lets every line breathe. With instruments such as the mandolino toscano, Tuscan mandola and archlute, he opens a new sound universe. Works from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier and the Second violin partita get extra depth, where transparency and warmth go hand in hand. The result is not a curiosity, but a convincing re-reading of Bach: clear in structure, rich in color and direct in expressiveness. A program that challenges connoisseurs and seduces new audiences. Bach, closer than ever.
