Ibragimova plays Bach

[sawyl]

Listening again to Alina Ibragimova's amazing performances of Bach's sonatas and partitas for solo violin, I'm again struck by just how spellbinding they are. There's a real sense of risk and adventure, especially in the pianissimo sections, while the vast chaconne was all the more amazing given the decision to restart — something that seems to have been discreetly removed from the listen again version, which seems a shame.
