Six Suites fro Solo Cello BWV 1007-1012
Following the release of his recording of Bach’s Cello Suites, Jan was awarded the Supersonic Award from Pizzicato Magazine. The publication writes of the album: “Jan Vogler, one of the best cellists of the present and future generations will surely be remembered along with such renowned musicians Piatigorsky, Casals, Starker and Du Pré. What distinguishes Vogler is, on the one hand, his wonderful sound and on the other, the ease and enthusiasm with which he approaches each work. Infinite richness of color, interpretations logically and consistently constructed, the art of letting the music breathe, to guide the listener while still managing to surprise them – this is Jan Vogler’s approach. And these are also the characteristics that distinguish this new recording of the Cello Suites by Bach. As a listener, one gets completely absorbed in the music and one cannot define what precisely it is that fascinates most. In any case, this complete recording has enormous expressiveness and intensity, and will live forever within the great musical and artistic wealth of repertoire.” Alain Steffen, Pizzicato, June 2013
