In 1994 under his contract with Sony, Cyprien Katsaris travelled to Hamburg to partake of the beautiful acoustics of the Friedrich-Ebert Halle for the recording of a number of J. S. Bach’s works wherein we find the distinctive stamp of Italian music of the late XVIIth and early XVIIIth Centuries and the concert sound of flamboyant, virtuoso violins. Sony published some of these recordings in 1995 as part of the recital “Italy in Bach”. In bringing together the unpublished Sony recordings from those sessions and those from another, also hitherto unpublished session dating from 2000 in the Van Geest Studio, thus rounding out the “Bach Recital” issued by Piano 21 in 2009 (P007), Cyprien Katsaris presents us with a most delectable selection of works by the composer of the Brandenburg Concertos.
