An extraordinary book which brings JS Bach and Pau Casals to life.
Both definitive and quirky at the same time.
A breathless journey.
Highly recommended.

A fascinating look at the Bach cello suites from 3 vantage points: Bach's life, cellist Pablo Casal's life, and the author's life. Provides a contemporary view of Bach's cello suites which I found positively delightful!

Cello Suites af Eric Siblin

This book is partly a biography of Bach and Pablo Cassals, and partly a musical history. I really enjoyed the biographical aspects. The author was able to portray Bach and Cassals with depth and as more than brilliant musicians. I also enjoyed the story of the author's own discovery of the cello suites and his attempts to better understand them by taking cello lessons and joining a Bach choir.

Like others, I found the structure (which mirrors the cello suites) a bit forced at times -- it necessitated some repetition and was, at times, disjointed.

All in all, I enjoyed it more than I thought I would as I'm not a classical music fan.… (mere)
