Cellist Viersen

Posted: Wednesday | 01.11.12

Bach, J S: Cello Suites Nos. 1-6, BWV1007-1012

Performed by Quirine Viersen (cello)

The Internet is a source of all kinds of information regarding world-wide talent in music. And today’s subject is talented cellist Quirine Viersen, who will demonstrate her cello playing for you.

Ms. Viersen uses the most recent Bärenreiter edition of the Bach Cello Suites as the basis for her first recording of these Suites. She plays a Joseph Guarnerius Filius Andrea 1715 cello.

Dutch cellist Quirine Viersen was born in 1972, and she is an exciting new artist. With her powerful, intense and virtuoso playing, she impressed me with her special musicality.

Who's Hank

Hank Zauderer is a violinist and an artist. He regularly hosts an evening classical music program at NPR radio station KUSP in Santa Cruz, California. In the past he was a member of several symphony orchestras and chamber music groups. In particular, he loves the study of great composers and feels that music composition so often reflects the key events that took place in a composer's life.

Hank's taste includes the old Gregorian Chants and related religious works as well as music of the Baroque, Classical, and the Romantic period. Some of his favorites include Mahler, Edward Elgar, Leonard Bernstein, Igor Stravinsky, and Benjamin Britten.
