"Heinrich Schiff's set of the unaccompanied Bach Cello Suites is digitally recorded with the utmost naturalness, the cello timbre warm and beautifully focused. So, too, are the performances, which are splendidly paced; Bach's linear flow is effortlessly phrased and moves forward with fine spontaneity.
Rostropovich has also recorded these supreme cello masterpieces for EMI (6/95), evoking an enormous range of expression, but Schiff's less flamboyant style is every bit as satisfying. Very highly recommended." (Gramophone)
