"In a long and varied career it is fair to say that #Bach loomed large... two very different recordings of the #CelloSuites ...hugely influential on a generation of cellists as well as the period inst perf mvmt in general...
second recording was made on #Stradivari’s - Kimon Daltas/ Strad 26 July 2019

Complementing my existing reviews of Bach's Cello Suites with the latest additions to my collection of recordings: Jean-Guihen Queyras' new recording from 2023 (harmonia mundi), and Anastasia Kobekina's set (SONY Classical) that just came out.
I have just added reviews for these to my comparison for the Cello Suite No.2 in D minor, BWV 1008. I'm all excited about these additions! You find the review (now 25 artists / 28 recordings) at
