Bach: Works for Violin
- BELL JOSHUA BACH
Joshua Bell And Academy of St Martin in the Fields
"Bach"
Bell alternated playing along with the first violins and conducting with great physical animation from his seat, sculpting the air expressively with his bow to bring forth a wealth of
interpretive detail from the musicians. This was as superb a program as I ve heard, delivered by a conductor of
tremendous promise and genuine ideas who also happens to be one heck of a violinist. - The Washington Post
As follow up to last-year s acclaimed and chart-topping all-Beethoven recording, Grammy Award-winning violinist Joshua Bell continues as Music Director and Conductor of the world-renowned ensemble, the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. On their new collaboration, this time with Bell also as a soloist, he conducts ASMF mostly from the concertmaster s chair in an all-Bach program. Joshua Bell is the first American and first person to hold the title of Music Director since Sir Neville Marriner formed the orchestra in 1958.
