About

Bruno Philippe conceives Bach’s Suites for solo cello as a veritable existential journey, from life to death and resurrection.

Forgoing metal strings for their historical gut equivalents, the young French artist offers us an inward, deeply moving reading of this monument of instrumental music.

Spotlight on this release

Awards and reviews

July 2022

Here is a highly likeable set, crackling with character...From the moment Philippe injects a flourish into the G major Prelude you know this will be fun: here is an artist unafraid of artful embroidering, and, in the faster dances, does so with a delicious sense of danger as he only just succeeds in tucking a flurry of notes into the beat.
