"Magna Sequentia I" is a unique sequencing of dance movements drawn from Bach’s keyboard works featuring pieces from the French Suites and Partitas. Whereas Bach’s suites typically comprise six to eight movements, Sonia Rubinsky has selected 19, compiled with a tonal logic that still keeps the structure of a suite. She has chosen several examples of each of the dance forms used by Bach so one can appreciate the dazzling variety of both style and mood. Enhanced by her historically informed performance, "Magna Sequentia I" offers fresh insights into Bach performance on a modern grand piano. © Naxos
