Yasunori Imamura, whose recording of Bach's complete lute works has been described as a ‘magnificent interpretation' (Naxos 8.573936–37), turns his attention to the Cello Suites. Imamura has chosen to perform these iconic suites on the theorbo, the most important plucked instrument in the lute family, with a range very similar to the cello. Certain technical elements, such as the playing of arpeggios are, in fact, easier on the theorbo whose unique timbres and resonances bring a new sonic quality to these much-loved works. This album includes cello suites 1, 4 and 5.

I'll share my personal struggles as to whether I should play this music, and in general the responsibility of handling pieces of great art. Hopefully adding humour to trying to finding life's meaning in the music. Let's remember: tackle challenging pieces seriously and embrace the ongoing quest for improvement. Introduction (00:00:00 - 00:00:45:14) In the opening segment, I share my initial reflections on the unique experience of playing Bach on the cello. Versatility of Bach's Cello Suites (00:00:45:16 - 00:02:25:18) We delve into the versatility of Bach's compositions for cello, Performer's Responsibility and Rostropovich (00:02:25:20 - 00:04:48:24) Reflecting on the performer's responsibility, I discuss Rostropovich's approach and touch on perhaps why he waited so long before recording them. Phrasing, Breathing, and Personal Experiences (00:04:49:01 - 00:07:40:20) Emphasising the significance of phrasing and breathing, I share personal anecdotes about my struggles and growth during practice. Articulation, Interpretation, and Final Thoughts (00:07:40:22 - 00:11:49:02) Let's explore the role of articulation, delve into my perspective on the debate, and discuss cautionary advice. I'll conclude with remarks on the gravity of approaching challenging musical pieces.

Interpreten: Florian Berner Label: Perfect Noise EAN: 0719279934021 In Wien haben wir den Cellisten Florian Berner bisher vorwiegend als Gründungsmitglied des Hugo Wolf Quartetts und ab 2016 auch des Alban Berg Ensemble Wien kennengelernt. Kürzlich hat er bei Perfect Noise eine solistische Aufnahme herausgebracht, mit den sechs Cellosuiten von Johann Sebastian Bach. Michael Gmasz ist begeistert. Ein Musiker, zwei besondere Räume und die Musik von Johann Sebastian Bach. Sonst nichts, kein Hochglanz, kein Chichi. Kurz und einfach zusammengefasst, was diese CD von Florian Berner für mich so besonders macht. Die Aufnahme wirkt gerade so, als ob man dem Musiker zufällig begegnet, er sein Cello auspackt und zu spielen beginnt. So oder so ähnlich muss es auch für so manche Kirchenbesucherin oder Kirchenbesucher in Castagneto Carducci gewesen sein, als sie den Cellisten dort im Sommer 2020 Tag für Tag, nur mit seinem Instrument, einem Mikrofon und seinem Laptop angetroffen haben. Ohne Tonmeister, ohne Aufnahmeleiter – und ohne Noten. Nur Florian Berner, der Raum der Chiesa di San Lorenzo und die Musik von Bach. Am Ende seines Aufenthaltes in der Toskana hat er so die Suiten 1-3 von Johann Sebastian Bach aufgenommen, die eine ehemalige Schülerin und mittlerweile Tonmeisterin in Wien zum großartigen Ergebnis der CD eins geschnitten hat. Auch für die Suiten 4-6 sollte ein besonderer Aufnahmeort gefunden werden. Wie es der Zufall so will, arbeitet eine weitere Tonmeisterin in Florian Berners Freundeskreis im Herbst 2022 gerade in einem gewissen Johann Sebastian Bach Saal in Köthen, jenem Ort, an dem Bach sechs Jahre tätig gewesen ist und an dem diese sechs Suiten entstanden sind. Die Entscheidung war getroffen, ein Zeitpunkt vereinbart und so ist auch die Aufnahme der zweiten CD durch besondere Umstände inspiriert. Florian Berner findet immer sein Tempo und es ist für jeden der insgesamt 36 Einzelsätze genau das Richtige. Schreitet voran, wo man den Zug nach vorne verspürt, hält inne, wo die Musik es verlangt. Historisch informiert? Wohl auf manche Art und Weise, im Sinne eines sporadischen Vibratoeinsatzes z.B. Aber vor allem sehr persönlich und innig. (mg)

Maya Beiser – InfInIte Bach: J.S. Bach's Six Cello Suites (Islandia Music Records) Jump to giveaway form New Classical Tracks - Maya Beiser by “I'll never forget. I think I was 10. My father said, ‘Maya, you have to decide: It's Carnegie Hall or Wimbledon,'” cellist Maya Beiser says, “And I remember telling him, ‘I don't think it's going to be Wimbledon, so why don't we do Carnegie Hall?'”Beiser did not disappoint her father. She has performed at Carnegie Hall many times over the years. She admits her father wasn't all that keen on the crazy contemporary music for which she's best known. However, he would have loved her latest recording, which is why she dedicated it to him. It's called Infinite Bach,' and it features the composer's famous cello suites.“The earliest musical memory that I have is of Bach, specifically the Bach cello suites,” she says. “I grew up in the northern part of Israel, in the Galilee, at a time where there was constant threat of war. And we spent actually a lot of time in shelters during my early childhood. I grew up in a commune. It was called a kibbutz.“And my father would always just listen to music. He bought this old recording of Pablo Casals performing the cello suites, and that is the earliest memory of my childhood, is the pleasure of just listening to that music in my parents' little house. It was the sense of safety and the connection that music always had for love.“I never thought I was going to record the Bach suites, because I always felt that there were enough recordings out there. There were wonderful cellists who have already done that, and I felt that I had a different mission. I'm 60 now. So it was kind of a big, momentous moment. For years, I had to juggle being a mother and a partner and all these things, and then the pandemic. During that time, my partner and I found this house in the Berkshires. We just fell in love with that place because it was inspiring. It had this separate converted barn; it just had the most incredible acoustics.“The first day I was there, I just took my cello and I sat in the middle of this empty space and just started to play the Bach suites. I all of a sudden realized that this is what I want to do for the next year. I imagined the cello as this sort of giant organ that takes over, and I wanted to create all these different reverbs and delays, but without any artificial electronics.  I wanted everything to be acoustic.”You say in your liner notes that some believe the suites bear a whisper of Bach's wife. Why did you include this?“All my teachers were men; all my mentors were men. And they always told me, you need to listen to Pablo Casals and Rostropovich and Pierre Fournier. I can give you the list. They were all older men. There was no model of how a woman would think of this music.“There are people who claim that Anna Magdalena, Bach's wife, was actually the one who wrote the suites. And whether it's true or not, the idea intrigued me. So I just liked to think about it as if I'm presenting a feminine Bach.” Maya Beiser: InfInIte Bach (Official Music Video) Water, The Prelude in D minorTo hear the rest of my conversation, click on the extended interview above, or download the extended podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.GiveawayMaya Beiser New Classical Tracks GiveawayYou must be 13 or older to submit any information to American Public Media/Minnesota Public Radio.

If we can make sense of our faith, is it really faith at all, or just a projection of what we want? Soren Kierkegaard, one of the most celebrated philosophers of the 19th century, asked the same question.

The Reformation: one of the greatest ruptures in European history, a rupture that permanently split the church, triggered wars, created new city-states, and even led, in the opinion of many experts, to the Enlightenment, Science, and the secularization of the West.It's such a big deal we're going to take two whole episodes to examine it—and still only scratch the surface. How did one man go from a pious local friar in an obscure backwater town to the leader of a global movement that ripped Christianity in two (and then three, then four, and ultimately thousands of Protestant denominations!). And what is the real legacy of this thing we call The Reformation?

Get 50% off your first three month subscription with the code 'Undeceptions50'. QUESTIONS Why did Jesus come during the Ancient period? I get why Jesus came (to fulfill God's promises and save the world etc.) but why the specific time period and place? Why didn't Jesus come in say, the medieval era? Or the 1900s? Why was it ancient Rome? In ‘The Flood' episode, you talk of the story of the flood as a piece of ‘high art' that should be understood as a retelling of stories that existed in the cultural climate. But would the ancient audience have thought like this or take it at face value as though they were real events that really happened?  Do you believe that Adam and Eve are historical figures?  In the episode called ‘Global Christianity', you mention the missionary impulse in Judaism: in the NT book of Acts we meet people who are described as ‘God fearers'. How many ‘God fearers' who weren't Jewish were around in the first century? And what motivated them to worship the God of Israel?  Regarding the ‘Pro Life' episode, suppose a pregnant mother in labor has a series of complications. If she births the baby, she'll die. But if she doesn't birth it soon, the baby will die. Would it be a sin, if you chose the mother to live, and the baby to die?  I teach school students who are blind or have low vision and some have a hard time understanding what their blindness means in regard to their relationship with God. I'm keen to know if you have a way to account for the descriptions of blindness in such a way that my students can hear the different passages and still see themselves as loved and valued by a good God, even if/when they are not healed, and despite the fact that some passages use blindness as a criticism. Can you help?  Why is the Catholic and Protestant bible different? What are those differences? Should Protestants read the books that are in the Catholic Bible too? What can Protestants learn from those books? How have those differences changed how Protestants and Catholics view the world?  I want to learn more about the Catholic faith and what happened before it became so ritualised. What was it like before the Catholic faith became the Catholic faith?  What's the deal with burial vs Cremation – specifically around our renewed bodies that God will transform us into? Does cremation hinder this?  The typical Christian answer to the question “Where does evil come from?” is free will. I.e. God made Adam and Eve perfect, but gave them free will. They decided to turn away from God, and now there's evil, sin and suffering in the world. But that argument doesn't really make sense, because free will doesn't necessarily entail evil. For example, God has free will, and he's completely good. God could have made us with a good nature, and still given us free will (like what we'll have in heaven). Based on this, it seems like God must have made evil. Or to phrase it another way, God seems to have made Adam and Eve with a propensity for evil, or made them too weak to cope with the moral choices he was giving them. If an inventor designs something and it malfunctions, it isn't really fair for him to blame the thing he's made for going wrong. We'd say that it's his fault for not designing it properly. So how is God not responsible for our sin? A friend follows Baháʼí  religion and says there is essential worth of all religions is the unity of all people. They regard the major world religions as fundamentally unified in purpose. At the heart of their teaching is the goal of a unified world order that ensures the prosperity of all nations, creeds and classes. It all sounds nice, but how does it play out in reality, and how does it differ from Christianity?  I have been reading your book, Bullies and Saints and was struck by your Chapter on the Inquisition. I get it, that the French Revolution in comparison had more deaths and other sorts of sufferings. However when a Catholic friend said to a Jewish friend (in my presence) that the Spanish Inquisition wasn't so bad, I wondered what the Jews thought of the whole issue? My Jewish friend just looked at him. Also what would be a helpful way to handle this issue when talking to people of other faiths, like Jewish and Muslim, who as you stated in your book were booted out of Spain?  I was reading a book by author and pastor Mark Clark who said Jesus would have dropped his ‘h's, that he had a really distinctive accent, and that other people from Galilee dropped their ‘h's and that the people from Jerusalem would have thought they were really uneducated because of that. Any other interesting things from Jesus that we might not know from the Bible that would help us connect with him as a man who walked the earth as well as our Lord and Jesus Christ our Saviour.  Visit the undeceptions.com for more content, including the full show notes for this episode.Follow the show on Facebook, Twitter and InstagramEmail the show with your comments / feedback: admin@undeceptions.comUndeceptions is the flagship podcast of Undeceptions.com: Letting the truth out.Theme music: JS Bach's Cello Suites, Prelude, performed by the Undeceptions Band. Hosted by John DicksonProduced by Kaley Payne Directed by Mark Hadley Audio Editing by Richard HamwiSocial Media by Sophie HawkshawAdministration by Lyndie LevistonWriter and researcher: Alasdair BellingOnline Librarian: Siobhan McGuinessCopyright Undeceptions Ltd 2023

Lewis have sold more than 100-million copies in 47 languages.And despite their dated references and sometimes controversial worldviews, they continue to sell over a million copies a year.They've also inspired theatre performances, radio plays, television series, and three major films that earned a healthy one and a half billion US dollars.So it's understandable that many people know of C.S. Lewis only as a fantastically successful children's author, unaware that he is also the author of a huge collection of books commending and defending the Christian faith, Mere Christianity, Miracles, The Screwtape Letters, and so on. Narnia is wonderful. But it's a pity people don't know more about the man, his career, and his famous town–all of which form the backdrop for the incredible fantasy world he created for millions of readers.

For the whole of August, we're celebrating hitting 1 Million downloads with a huge competition. We're giving away a genuine Roman Denarius from the time of Jesus – a Tiberius Denarius, to be exact, issued between AD 14-37. It was a day's wages in Jesus' day. It's worth considerably more today, and the one I've sourced is a beauty. It comes with a letter of authenticity and the excitement of owning a wonderful piece of ancient history. You'll also receive a new Amazon Kindle Paperwhite e-reader and a $150 Amazon voucher to fill it with a heap of history books, obviously. We've also got 10 more Amazon Kindle's and book vouchers for our runners up. You can enter once, or for more chances to win, the team has set up a treasure hunt for hidden codes that allow you extra entries.

After all, the Creator is an artist and logician in one!This episode of Undeceptions is sponsored by Zondervan Academic's new book Biblical Critical Theory: How the Bible's Unfolding Story Makes Sense of Modern Life and Culture by Christopher Watkin.Visit the undeceptions.com for more content, including the full show notes for this episode.Follow the show on Facebook, Twitter and InstagramEmail the show with your comments / feedback: admin@undeceptions.comUndeceptions is the flagship podcast of Undeceptions.com: Letting the truth out.Theme music: JS Bach's Cello Suites, Prelude, performed by the Undeceptions Band. Hosted by John DicksonProduced by Kaley Payne Directed by Mark Hadley Audio Editing by Richard HamwiSocial Media by Sophie HawkshawAdministration by Lyndie LevistonLibrarian: Siobhan McGuinessCopyright Undeceptions Ltd 2022
