Description

180g Vinyl Double LP!

Johann Sebastian Bach plays a key role in the life Zhu Xiao-Mei she is today one of the most significant interpreters of his music.

Recorded at Mendelssohn-Saal of the Gewandhaus zu Leipzig in May 2016, pianist Zhu Xiao-Mei performs The French Suites by J.S. Bach.

"It is with children in mind that I recorded these French Suites, always having heartfelt simplicity and purity in their mind. Children see the world with hope, optimism, and cast in light much like Miró sees the world. I find a childlike purity in him, similar to what I hear in the French Suites.

"There is a quote by Miró that touches me enormously and makes me think a lot whenever I play, as it reflects something that may be the most difficult aspect of musical interpretation and of art in general: "To gain freedom is to gain simplicity." - Zhu Xiao-Mei
