Vladimir Ashkenazy:

Bach - English Suites 1-3

Brought together on this unique double album are Ashkenazy's latest Bach recording of English Suites 1-3 and his first-ever Bach recording from 1965, the Concerto in D minor. An astonishing 56 years and a lifetime's experience of this timeless music span the two recordings, marking the longest exclusive association between pianist and record label in history. This new recording of the first three English Suites is the latest addition to Ashkenazy's discography of the major keyboard works of JS Bach.  Back in 2004 he began with ‘The 48' (the 48 Preludes & Fugues of ‘The Well-Tempered Clavier') and this was immediately greeted with critical acclaim: "The pianist's straightforward, intelligent, and vibrantly clear interpretations are a joy to hear", wrote Classics Today, going on to say "He eschews Glenn Gould's idiosyncrasies of tempo and phrasing, and proves more stylish than older, erstwhile Russian colleagues like Nikolayeva and Richter." Gramophone added: "you will surely return to Ashkenazy for his unfailing lucidity and musicianship."
