Description:

Valentin Erben's Bach: Suite for Unaccompanied Cello! Valentin Erben, cellist of the Alban Berg String Quartet, the world's most prestigious quartet, now performs Bach's Unaccompanied Cello Suites! Valentin Erben (1945-), cellist of the Alban Berg String Quartet for 38 years from its inception in 1970 to its dissolution in 2008, has made a solo recording of the quartet! The recording was made in 2020, when Erben was 75 years old, at the St. Florian Monastery in Bruckner's hometown. The effect is like a bridge between the six suites. This is a record of Erben as a soloist after a brilliant life as a chamber musician. Expect a performance that is powerful, humble, and even youthful. Tokyo M-Plus
