Release Details

The considerable variety of Johann Sebastian Bach's output for the lute stands witness to different periods of his life and career. This collection comprises Bach's complete lute works, amply demonstrating his interest in it's expressive qualities. These works include the technically demanding Partita BWV 1006a, Bach's own transcription of his Cello Suite No. 5, three pieces from the St. John Passion and the St. Matthew Passion where the lute appears in an ensemble setting, and the Prelude, Fugue and Allegro, BWV 998, described by the renowned harpsichordist Wanda Landowska as "of incomparable beauty... unique amongst Bach's works." Yasunori Imamura is recognized as one of the most prominent exponents of lute both as a soloist as well as a continuo player, his more than 140 solo recordings receiving excellent reviews in various audio magazines, with the Diapason d'or and Joker de Crescendo awards for his recordings of Weiss' Lute Sonatas.
