Jorge Jimenez (violin)About
The young violinist Jorge Jiménez, also Catalan, is a great admirer of the great cellist, coming only a few kilometres from Casals's birthplace. But Bach's cello suites already attracted attention in the 19th century, in the course of the Leipzig Bach Renaissance around Felix Mendelssohn.
The violin virtuoso and teacher Ferdinand David made an arrangement for the violin. Jorge Jiménez uses this edition from 1866 for his interpretation. It contains unusually varied and for that time very precise indications for the performance of the music. For this version, entirely in the 19th century reading, Jorge Jiménez uses a romantic violin and a bow from the period.
His extraordinary interpretation of Bach's cello suites is the second part of his series "Rethinking Bach", which Jiménez began with his own highly acclaimed arrangement of the Goldberg Variations for solo violin (PC10434).
