Info for J.S. Bach: The Six Partitas

Drei mit großem Sachverstand gestaltete, exzellent ausgeführte und u.a. mit dem Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik ausgezeichneten Anthologien mit Musik für Tasteninstrumente hat Giulia Nuti bereits eingespielt; zwei davon für das Label Arcana. Auch auf die Instrumente wurde für diese Aufnahmen größter Wert gelegt, um das jeweilige Repertoire entsprechend zu bereichern: Le Cœur et l'Oreille (2017) entstand auf einem Cembalo von Louis Denis aus des Jahr 1658, für The fall of the Leaf (2022) kam das prächtige Virginal „Rucellai“ von 1575 zum Einsatz.

Für ihr viertes Solo-Recital-Album geht Giulia Nuti einen anderen Weg und spielt einen der Höhepunkte der Tastenliteratur, die Sechs Partiten von Johann Sebastian Bach. In dieser Aufnahme verwendet sie ein fabelhaftes Cembalo von Christian Kuhlmann (2016), eine Kopie des 1751 entstandenen Instrumentes von Henri Hemsch.
