“This is just marvelous,” proclaimed The Guardian of master pianist András Schiff’s performance of Bach’s Partitas. “Every note of the music is in Schiff's blood and, through his recent experience of conducting, he seems to have absorbed varied instrumental textures, breathtaking spontaneity, extrovert ornamentation, and whimsical rhythmic freedom.” Hear for yourself when Schiff comes to Carnegie Hall to perform the complete dance suites.

András Schiff's Bach project reaches the Partitas at Carnegie Hall

David Allen, 31st October

Almost a year after it started, András Schiff’s Bach project in New York is finally coming to its conclusion. He began on the Upper East Side, at 92Y, with both books of The Well-Tempered Clavier. His performance of Book I, I wrote, was “of the highest quality and depth of thought”.
