Robert Levin’s view of music is multiple. It is at the same time that of a performer, but also of a researcher, a teacher and a composer. He invites us to rediscover Bach’s Partitas.

Levin’s recording of Bach’s Six Partitas is way of perfect, yet at the same time old fashioned. Levin’s performances are intellectual and rigorous, form and structure being more important than rhetoric and emotions.
