Interesting to compare to my other favorite period recording, Pieter Wispelwey. I prefer baroque tuning, but this is amazing regardless of tuning.

@xxVivaldixx I'm sure as a "Juilliard alumni who has preformed [sic] this particular suite hundreds of times, including live in apollo," you have a video of your interpretation you'd like to post? It can go right after the video on your profile of you being 16 years old and throwing a moltov cocktail with your friends from 2 months ago!

No interpretation is better than another interpretation, the musician play the music the way he want to play it, thats all, nothing more, there is no best version of the prelude of bach

@melkorzeblack I can't say that he is better than any cellist. I love his interpretation, yet, but no cellist is better. Of course, it depends on the listener.

@mrcakeman2 did you not see my previous comment? It states " to be honest it's jerky,stops at the wrong times,some notes aren't drawn out as long as they should be... ALOT OF THIS HAS TO DO WITH STYLE THOUGH" which by saying such i state that it's about perception, now as to who am I to way if it stops at the wrong times; I am a juilliard alumni and have preformed this particular suite hundreds of times, including live in apollo, though you are true as to state that music is subjective.

You're an incompetent idiot
Who are you to way that he stops at the right or wrong time. This is his interpretation of the suite and it is beautiful to listen to and is very convincing
Music is subjective and can be played however the artist wants
Only a complete retard would say that there is a right or wrong way to do it

I went listening to him play all Bach's cello suites... He's a god.

@kowalsky111 smart man, but its not that its "so poor" its just not very well put, to be honest its jerky, stops at the wrong the time, some notes aren't drawn out as long as they should be, a lot of this has to do with style though. When you spend your whole life listening to and perfecting baroque period music on a variety of instruments you would see why I stated such.

@xxVivaldixx ok, but you also have the right to be criticised then. why is this so poor?
Incorrect,
The set up is completely modern, including bridge and fingerboard.
I love his interpretation, and the bit from 1:30 makes me shiver..

that was actually better than starker's. jean guihen queyras is one of the best interpret of the suites in ages.
