J.S. Bach: Cello Suite No. 3 in C major (Johnny Gandelsman, violin) | MetLiveArts

In 2023, violinist Johnny Gandelsman realized a longtime dream: performing J.S. Bach’s six Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin, plus novel arrangements of the composer’s six cello suites, over a weeklong residency at The Met Cloisters. Through four consecutive nights in the resplendent Fuentidueña Chapel, Gandelsman paved a memorable journey through the behemoth pieces, infusing his own, folk-rooted voice through what he considers “some of Bach’s most personal and joyful works.” — 0:05 Prelude 2:46 Allemande 5:37 Courante 8:04 Sarabande 11:24 Bourées I & II 14:26 Gigue — Johnny Gandelsman, violin Recorded on Tuesday, May 23, 2023, in Fuentidueña Chapel at The Met Cloisters.  This performance was made possible by the Grace Jarcho Ross and Daniel G.
