Called by The Strad as “a remarkable artist who breathes new life into well-worn repertoire”, Jean-Guihen Queyras is a true master who embraces the old and the new. Whereas his recording of Bach’s complete Cello Suites has won him such accolades as Diapason d’Or of the Year 2008 and CHOC du Monde de la Musique, he is also a champion of contemporary music and has premiered works by leading composers including Michael Jarrell, Thomas Larcher and Bruno Mantovani. He returns to Le French May with the second part of his acclaimed “Six Suites, Six Echoes” project, for which he commissioned six new works to accompany each of Bach’s six monumental Cello Suites. Surely a feast for the ears and soul!
