About

This musical project was born in the very first meeting with Luca Guglielmi, the night before a concert in Geneva when, through the music of J. S. Bach, a sincere human and musical affinity was revealed that needed neither words nor looks. Now, at a distance of a time made fluid by the hours of listening to the tracks, I see that we had met in Bach's profound italianness, in the singing of the melodies that danced in counterpoint, in the rhythmic undulation of his writing, but above all in the composer's human and eternal spirituality. Although in the manuscripts the three Sonatas for Viola da Gamba are accompanied by the harpsichord, we imagined the Viola da Gamba conversing with different keyboard instruments that Bach had at his disposal: Matthias Griewisch copy of a Mietke harpsichord (kindly loaned by the Bach Museum in Leipzig), Kerstin Schwarz copy of a Silbermann piano and the organ in the Frankenstein Dorfkirche, built by Gottfried Silbermann in 1753, few years after Bach's death.
