THIBAULT CAUVIN - Bach | CD

"Simply incredible" Los Angeles Times. Thibault Cauvin, "The guitar superstar" (Quotidien) unveils his unique reinterpretations of timeless works by BACH on February 3rd. "Recording Bach's music... Perhaps the greatest and most beautiful adventure for a performer, diving into his notes, both eternal and timeless, is deeply moving. I remember, preparing this album for months, losing track of time every morning as I plunged disoriented into these scores that resembled world maps. The ultimate journey, no doubt, is this great legendary Chaconne, which has driven mad those who play it and the dreamers who listen to it, for centuries. Like an adventurer setting off to discover new territories, when one strikes the first chord of this ocean, one has the feeling of leaving the dock for a miraculous epic. This music of Bach can be learned, cerebral, impressive, but it is also obvious and universal. It is the wisdom of childhood that I wanted to rediscover by recording this album in these lands of Dordogne where I went on vacation as a little boy; to rediscover that joy, that light, that sweet serenity. There, in a wonderful little church with enchanting acoustics, I recorded Bach's notes, day and night, and I deliver them to you here, like handing over a map that leads to a treasure." Thibault Cauvin Widely acclaimed for his passion and creativity, he has consistently won awards and, by the age of 20, he had won a total of 36 awards (including 13 first prizes) – more than any other guitarist. For over 15 years, he has toured extensively and played in the most prestigious venues around the world. 120 countries, 1000 solo concerts with this unique guitar, stirring Carnegie Hall in New York, Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow, Shanghai Concert Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall in London, etc... His universal playing and gracious personality have charmed and brought together all audiences. His new album Bach is an unmissable classical event!
