Eleonor Bindman and Jenny Lin - J.S. Bach: Brandenburg Duets

Naxos Announces Brandenburg Duets on Grand Piano Label

Published 01/20/18
           

Naxos Records, a leading label and distributor of Classical Music, announces a March 2018 “Brandenburg Duets” release on their Grand Piano label. Launched in 2012, Grand Piano has quickly gained a reputation for producing high quality recordings of rare keyboard gems and the new arrangement of the Brandenburg Concertos was a perfect fit for its repertoire of world premiere recordings. The album will be distributed globally both physically and digitally through the Naxos distribution network, and since it is a release from a “house” label, it will be given priority by their sales organizations.

Bindman takes [Bach] quite literally, transcribing in the register he wrote in, mostly, and clearly with enjoyment. Her tempos are sometimes faster than a cellist’s fingers might find practical, but her musical sense is excellent. She observes most of the written repeats.

Bindman maintains the majesty of Bach’s music, via both her transcription and her convincing command of the keyboard. Whether you’re a purist or a Bach devotee, this satisfying 2-CD set is worthy of a thoughtful listen.

Sharna Searle
The Whole Note

Quite simply (and irrespective of the particular novelty factor here) this is Bach playing of the highest order. … Listening to Bindman’s recording, I was immediately struck by the mellifluous beauty and sensitivity of her renditions of these iconic cello works; that she has transcribed them so well and plays them with such assurance, grace and finesse makes this 2CD set an easy choice for my Recording of the Month.

Andrew Eales
Pianodao

“Prepare to be surprised when you listen to the new 2-CD release of Eleonor Bindman playing her piano arrangements of Bach’s Cello Suites. Ms. Bindman’s arrangements faithfully include the notes you will find in the original Bach, but have become works that are new, unique, and completely satisfying on their own terms.”

Barry Lenson
Classical Archive

“Her skillfully wrought arrangements… [treat] the solo cello lines straight, and… you get Bach’s text served up with sensitivity and taste… Bindman’s well-considered tempos address the music’s dance origins. …her Preludes and Sarabandes sing out well”
