The very best bach ever
chiabi | CUNEO Italy | 01/03/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm studying the bach sonatas and partitas by bach since an year and a half by now and the first distinction must me done on the recordings done with the baroque bow and the italian bow (the common bow everyone knows). Among the seconds the early ionterpretation of Menuhin remains the best ever he keep together the baroque sound of this compositions with beautiful deep sound. He reaches its best with the very deep sottovoce with a perfect crescendo. He keeps apart the romanticism so much common in other recordings, a moderated and very well dosed use of vibrato, trust the very best recording ever (I've heard other 25 recordings, the other good are UTO UGHI, Heifetz, let alone the chaccona that really lack of the sensitivness you find in Menuhin, Szigeti, Milstein is quite disappointing nice to hear but far from beeing Bach, Perlman disappointing too. It would have been nice to listen to Kogan and Oistrakh playing these pieces). The second recording by Menuhin done in the sixties is quite different many reckon it worse but I somehow prefer in the third Sonata. Just buy it."
