Jennifer Koh (violin)About
Bach & Beyond Part 1 features Koh’s “alluring performances” (The New York Times) of Bach’s Partitas nos. 2 and 3, Eugène Ysaÿe’s Sonata no.2, Kaija Saariaho’s Nocturne, and the world-premiere recording of Missy Mazzoli’s Dissolve, O My Heart, commissioned for Koh by the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The Newark Star-Ledger cited the violinist’s “distinctive voice over a range of styles.”
Toronto’s The Whole Note said of Bach & Beyond Part 2, “Koh, as always, is superb, her intelligence and interpretation always matching her outstanding technique” in Bach’s Sonata no.1 and Partita no.1, Béla Bartók’s Sonata for Solo Violin, Sz117, BB124, and Saariaho’s Frises.
Koh’s Bach & Beyond Part 3 earned BBC Music Magazine’s and ClassicsToday.com’s highest ratings for performance and recording quality. The Strad admired Koh’s “eloquent, artful, yet unadorned playing” in Bach’s Sonatas nos. 2 and 3, Luciano Berio’s Sequenza VIII, and the world premiere recording of John Harbison’s For Violin Alone, written for Koh.
AllMusic said, “Koh’s series is highly recommended to those in search of an experience that will reward repeated hearings.” Audiophile Audition called it a “remarkable three-disc effort, recommended to all with a good degree of urgency.”
