CD Reviews

First rate set of Bach partitas for harpsichord

M. Levitt - classical music buff | Philadelphia, PA | 07/17/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Robert Woolley's set of the six Bach Partitas for Harpsichord, BWV 825-830 is a set that lingers after playing. It is a set I want to come back to, unlike the Suzuki set (also on harpsichord), which I found somewhat disappointing after his CD of Bach Fantasias, including a dazzling Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue.

Woolley's Bach Partitas are very musical, satisfying. I would love to hear him in other Bach for solo harpsichord, but, unfortunately, this seems to be the only recording that he has made.

The recording quality (Chandos) is very fine."
