Eleonor Bindman’s new arrangement of Bach’s orchestral suites for piano duet follows her widely admired recording of the six Brandenburg Concertos. Once again, the transcription re-imagines Bach’s writing using the modern piano, in this case a Bösendorfer. Bindman and her Duo Vivace partner, Susan Sobolewski, draw upon the suite’s dance movements to suggest how Bach might have distributed the material, ordering them for maximum contrast, and succeeding in conveying the music’s vitality and beauty in a new medium.
