Review

These are among the most accessible of Bach's keyboard works, but they usually sound much better on the harpsichord than on the piano. Previously the main exception to this rule was Glenn Gould, but Sergey Schepkin's performances are even better. The clarity and dexterity of his playing are simply amazing; he seems to breathe life and excitement into every measure of the music. It's rare that a little-known artist comes along and sweeps the field, but Schepkin has done exactly that. For Bach partitas on the piano, he is it. Leslie Gerber
