Johann Sebastian Bach. The Six Partitas
Skilfully crafted, meticulously executed and utterly enjoyable, Giulia Nuti’s solo recordings include three anthologies of keyboard music, the last two released with Arcana. These albums feature historically significant instruments carefully chosen by the artist to enhance the repertoire with which they are associated: Le Cœur et l’Oreille (2017), recorded on the 1658 Louis Denis harpsichord and, more recently, The Fall of the Leaf (2022), featuring the splendid Italian “Rucellai” virginal built around 1575.
Her albums have been met with critical acclaim and awards, such as the “Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik” (German Record Critics’ Award) and the “Diapason d’or”.
For her fourth solo recital album, Giulia Nuti explores a different path, performing one of the pinnacles of keyboard literature, Johann Sebastian Bach’s Six Partitas. In this recording, she uses a splendid harpsichord by Christian Kuhlmann (2016), a copy of the magnificent Henri Hemsch of 1751.
Abilmente congegnate, meticolosamente realizzate e assolutamente godibili all’ascolto, le registrazioni solistiche di Giulia Nuti comprendono tre antologie di musica per tastiera, le ultime due uscite sua Arcana. Tre album di successo (“Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik”, “Diapason d’or” ecc.) accomunati dall’utilizzo di strumenti storicamente significativi, scelti con cura dall’artista per valorizzare il repertorio a cui sono associati: “Le Cœur et l’oreille” (2017), registrato sul clavicembalo Louis Denis del 1658 e, più recentemente, “The Fall of the Leaf” (2022), con lo splendido virginale italiano “Rucellai” costruito intorno al 1575.
