Elinor Frey: Bach Cello Suites
Advertisement
$55 Adult | $20 Student | $ 10 Child
American-Canadian cellist, gambist, and researcher, Elinor Frey has performed across the Americas and Europe. Her album Giuseppe Clemente Dall’Abaco Cello Sonatas won a Diapason d’Or, and Early Italian Cello Concertos won the 2023 Juno Award for Classical Album of the Year.
At the heart of the repertoire of nearly all cellists, Bach’s cello suites are among the most appreciated works of music lovers around the world. The suites highlight how Bach is especially adept at mixing particular characteristics of the cello. For example, because of its unique range, from the low bass to the soprano, the cello is able to create the illusion of multiple voices, resulting in a polyphony inspired by the use of Bach’s harmony and melody, using wonderful techniques that intrigue the ear at every moment.
Elinor Frey returns to Elora to play Suites 1, 5, and 6 in the intimate acoustic of St. John’s Anglican Church.
