Six Cello Suites performed on viola
Editorial Reviews
Classics Today
Patricia McCarty must be applauded for her achievement. In McCarty's hands these pieces sound as if they were written for the viola.
(Jan Hanford)
In a market of so many recordings of these works, this performance on viola stands out above the rest.(Jan Hanford, J.S. Bach Home Page.

It is just what I ordered.......2007-07-13
The CD came on time and was good quality. It was just what I heard on the online player.
Sheer Brilliance.......2007-05-14
Wonderful, inspiring, beautiful. Music like this is why I took up the Viola. The marrying of Bach, with the skill of Patricia and the acoustics of the location make this an enthralling experience. I can not recommend this highly enough.
A true essential.......2007-05-13
This recording is an essential for every Bach lover's collection. This is a phenomenal performance that only gets better the more you listen to it. Also, as a violist myself, I notice that as I study each suite, I gain even more respect for the depth and perception which Ms. McCarty displays in her playing. Each suite has a delightful and distinct character of its own. This is a grerat recording of the suites, whether on cello or viola.
Eh - It was alright.......2005-03-20
Honestly, I thought the album was well done. As a violist, I was glad to see a solo viola performer taking on the challenge of interpreting Bach's viola suites, but really, this CD has nothing on Yo Yo Ma's version on cello. McCarthy just can't match Ma's interpretive abilities; and honestly, I've heard better viola recordings as well, though I can't remember who off of the top of my head. Still, it's a decent recording, with very nice acoustics.
A wonderful addition to any Bach lovers collection.......2004-06-28
This CD really rounds out my collection of the Bach Suites. If you love Bach you shuldn't miss the rich tones and the amazing clarity of Patricia McCarty's work.

Materpiece!.......2004-12-28
Michael Zaretsky delivers a stunning virtuoso performance of this piece. The rendition on viola gives the bach suites a lyrical quality and Zaretsky's rendition is masterful, with an attention to the subtle nuances of every passage and every original notation from one of the earliest manuscripts. A must for the bach suite lover.
