About

Thomas Quasthoff makes a welcome return to the music of Johann Sebastian Bach with a collection of the “Dialogue” Cantatas BWV 49, 57, and 152. One of today’s greatest baritones with his most celebrated repertoire.

Quasthoff’s previous Bach Cantatas album, also with the Berliner Barock Solisten, was hailed by the press and brought the artist numerous awards – including his third Grammy® award as “Singer of the Year” 2006.

For this new collection, Quasthoff is joined by the acclaimed German soprano Dorothea Röschmann, with whom he has enjoyed a close collaboration for many years in various types of repertoire.

Critics and audiences alike have applauded the emotional directness of Quasthoff’s performances: “Thomas Quasthoff is a born communicator – his warm relationship with audiences coupled with his melting bass-baritone voice lends his performances a welcoming, intimate atmosphere. And it’s this winning combination that appears on his disc of Bach Cantatas. You can hear the great singer’s strong personality in every phrase . . .” (BBC Music Magazine, London, April 2006 on the previous album).
