Bach Cello Suites

Transcribed for Viola

Tasana Nagavajara, viola



J.S. Bach
Cello Suite No.1 in G major, BWV 1007
Cello Suite No.2 in D minor, BWV 1008
Cello Suite No.3 in C major, BWV 1009

The six cello suites of Bach were first transcribed for viola by Samuel Lifschey (principal violist of the Philadelphia Orchestra), in the 1920's. Since then, they have become a major part of the solo viola repertoire. In this concert Tasana will play the first three suites. He will perform the last three suites of the set later in the year. 



Tasana Nagavajara
started learning the violin at the age of 9.The turning point in his musical education came in 1989 when he was granted a full scholarship by the International Menuhin Music Academy (IMMA) to study with Alberto Lysy and Johannes Eskar in Switzerland. He thereby gained the golden opportunity to become a member of the Camerata Lysy Gstaad which performed under Lord Yehudi Menuhin in most major European cities, USA, Canada and South America. He performs regularly at Eelswamp.
