"Inom trapetskonsten sägs det att den som skall fångas aldrig själv skall försöka fånga. Bara kasta sig ut med full tillit och låta sig tas emot. Denna inställning finns också hos Isabelle Faust när hon sätter full fart, lättar från marken och seglar i väg i J?S Bachs sonater och partitor för soloviolin. Hon vet att Bach bär henne hela vägen, att hans på samma gång bergfasta och kristallklara kompositioner ger henne vingar. Med denna andra volym fullbordar Faust sin tolkning av dessa epokgörande stycken. Virvlande flikar av världen som tillsammans bildar ett eget universum."

Isabelle Faust, violin

Isabelle Faust hit the Classical charts earlier this year with her mesmerising recording of Beethoven and Berg with Claudio Abbado. She followed up with some welcome live appearances here in the UK, which included the Brahms' concerto at the Barbican with frequent collaborators Jiri Belohlavek and the BBCSO.

Isabelle's recordings have won prizes since her harmonia mundi debut in 1997 which earned her a Gramophone Young Artist Award. In 2010 her Beethoven Violin Sonatas with Alexander Melnikov also won. The afore-mentioned Beethoven-Berg has been awarded Gramophone Recording of the Month, Daily Telegraph Classical CD of the Week, Times CD of the Week, Classic FM Disc of the Week, Sunday Times CD of the Week, BBC Music Magazine Recording of the Month and CD Review Disc of the Week.

Now she returns to J.S. Bach for a second volume of what Andrew McGregor described in such glowing terms: "there's some of the best-judged ornamentation I've heard in repeated passages. The recording is utterly self-effacing, in just the right way, and my only complaint is that the job's half done...I'm impatient for the rest! Harmonia Mundi is the label, it's released this coming Monday, and the notes are excellent as well." CD Review, BBC Radio 3, 27 March 2010

Isabelle is shortlisted for the Gramophone Best Artist Award 2012. Her next concert in the UK is at the Wigmore Hall, October 29 with Alexander Melnikov and Jean-Guihen Queyras.

Gramophone Editor's Choice

"Faust is fast making her name as the Bach violinist of our time. Outstanding." Andrew Clark, Financial Times, 20/21 March 2010

"Faust's playing has elements of Mullova's power, Ibragimova's intimacy, Fischer's bravura, and Podger's delight in Bach's dances, and the recording is a peach, perfectly framing her musicianship. There's only one thing wrong with it: there are only three of the six suites here, the D minor and E major Partitas and the C major Sonata, and I'm impatient for volume two." Andrew McGregor, CD Review Disc of the Week, BBC Music, 24 June 2010
