"New interpretations of Bach that breathe fresh energy into the music while remaining impressively true to its original passion and intensity." --Lucid Culture
Featuring Dana Lyn on violin and Rob Moose on tenor guitar and mandolin, Bach Reformed draws its repertoire from J.S. Bach’s Suites for Unaccompanied Cello and the Sonatas and Partitas for Violin Solo and rescores the material as duets. The arrangements reflect Lyn and Moose’s combined wealth of experience in folk and non-classical traditions as well as a strong creative impulse grounded by the duo’s extensive classical training and their deep love and admiration of Bach’s music.
In arranging Bach’s solo string works, special effort is made to respect both Baroque and folk performance practice while presenting these works in a completely new light. The original pieces are re-contextualized by using various stylistic elements, such as ornamentation, melodic variation and alternate tunings that enhance the rhythmic element of Bach’s music. Above all, Bach Reformed seeks to emphasize and play with the dance rhythms and seemingly improvisatory qualities inherent in the original works.
