Special offer. JS Bach: Italian Concerto & French Overture
Vladimir Ashkenazy (piano)
He's careful not to make an over-expressive meal of the Sarabande, and the spiky Gigue is pertly pointed, but the tongue-in-cheek Echo sounds as if played through gritted teeth.

Ashkenazy, playing a standard grand piano, is a no-nonsense interpreter. Performances are crisp and clear, never sentimentalised, and capture the freshness of the music as if he has found a new love.
