Thomas Dunford performs a program of solo lute works by Bach. Recorded in the ideal surroundings of the Salle de Musique of La Chaux-de-Fonds in Switzerland. Thomas Dunford plays an archlute by Giuseppe Tumiati, Cremona, 1993.
He performs an original composition by Bach for lute, the Suite in G minor BWV 995, as well as his own arrangements of the (Cello) Suite BWV 1007 and the famous Chaconne from the Partita BWV 1004. The latter piece has a notorious reputation for being (virtually) unplayable, at least on the violin!
