The Suites for Cello by Bach
(sans frontieres)
Dan CAVASSI
ACTUALITATEA MUZICALA Nr. 7 - July 2011 (Romania)
OVIDIU MARINESCU is an eminent Romanian cellist settled
abroad, whose solo career harmoniously combines a rich teaching activity with
conducting successes.
After Casals there were Starker, Yo Yo-Ma, Mayski, some
of the greatest. But now we have a Romanian who can measure against them and
he's doing very well. Ovidiu Marinescu's interpretation is strong and
dignified, may be lyrical or dramatic, but first it is powerful. It gives you
the feeling of an absolute power, indisputable: it's Bach's music in pure state,
music that is above all human will.
The technical perfection of the artist is coupled with a refined
taste, resulting in an interpretation full of emotion and musical knowledge. If any creative output bears the marks of the
time, the most important thing is projecting it into the future, and in this
context, the new but brave idea to mix the suites and the order of the movements
as chosen by the performer, gives Bach's music a note of freedom and gives the suites
an infinite kaleidoscopic structure, in which any final chord may become... a
semicolon...
