Mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile!
Bach: Sonatas and Partitas, Vol. 1 is available today!
Today marks the Nonesuch Records release of a new album of three Bach works recorded by mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile. Bach: Sonatas and Partitas, Vol. 1 comprises three works written for solo violin: Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BWV 1001; Partita No. 1 in B minor, BWV 1002; and Sonata No. 2 in A minor, BWV 1003. The album was produced by Thile’s friend, mentor, and frequent collaborator, the double bassist and composer Edgar Meyer.
To pick up a copy of Bach: Sonatas and Partitas, Vol. 1, head to iTunes and, for CD, MP3, and FLAC, the Nonesuch Store, where CD orders include a download of the complete album at checkout. Thile will perform works by Bach in solo recitals this fall; for details and ticket links, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
In advance of today's album release, Chris Thile was featured on the PBS NewsHour last night. Thile, whom host Ray Suarez describes as "a mandolin virtuoso who defies musical boundaries," talks with the show's Jeffrey Brown about that very thing, moving beyond the artificial limitations of genre, not least to perform these Bach violin pieces on the mandolin.
