The Met | J.S. Bach: Violin Partita No. 2 in D minor (Johnny Gandelsman) | MetLiveArts @metmuseum | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 21 hours ago.
In 2023, violinist Johnny Gandelsman realized a longtime dream: performing J.S. Bach’s six Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin, plus novel arrangements of the composer’s six cello suites, over a weeklong residency at The Met Cloisters. Through four consecutive nights in the resplendent Fuentidueña Chapel, Gandelsman paved a memorable journey through the behemoth pieces, infusing his own, folk-rooted voice through what he considers “some of Bach’s most personal and joyful works.”
