Valery Afanassiev

Description:

Although Afanasiev was one of Russia's leading Bach players, winning the International Bach Competition in Leipzig at a young age, he had not made a coherent recording of Bach's works until this album. The "Mean Law" is a unique world told like a 48+1 story, including the final fugue, which is in two versions. Columbia Music Entertainment
