[ Sony Classical Masters / CD ]
Release Date: Tuesday 1 May 2018
The Australian guitarist John Williams has long been universally recognized as a true master, to quote the Guardian. The centrepiece of his Bach recordings is formed by the Suites for solo lute.
John Williams is a superb technician, wrote MusicWeb International, and justifiably deserves the accolades heaped on him during his long career. His rendition of these works is most authoritative and executed with admirable fluidity.
