Music - I Dischi del Sole Cherubini, "Six Sonatas" - Andrea Bacchetti, piano
Il Sole 24 Ore
- March 11th, 2007

A precious anthology: these truly unknown Six Sonatas, written by the celebrated Florentine opera composer, open the door on the background of a lot of our authors of Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries, who had fame thanks to the sceneries of all Europe but who had grown on a rigorous instrumental discipline, on the taste for a severe and antique writing. Keeping the eyes closed, Cherubini seems Christian Bach. Gallant as him, weird in flourishes which break formal schemes, he is imaged in a splendid record by Andrea Bacchetti as shining, adamantine sound with a little of virtuosity foolishness.

In 1780, the twenty-year-old Luigi Cherubini wrote Six Sonatas per cembalo o fortepiano ... which now come back to flourish and reveal to be really interesting in the execution to piano by Andrea Bacchetti. There, Bacchetti found the Eighteenth-century salons, French gallantry and also a little of revolutionary essence.

Cultured Music Andrea Bacchetti in Quiliano with Six Sonatas by Cherubini
La Stampa
- March 20th, 2007

... First world record on a modern piano, the Six Sonatas by Cherubini's CD - produced by Sony on RCA label - is in releasing since March 9th after official presentation on March 6th in La Sapienza University's Assembly Hall, Rome. Bacchetti says: "... I think that expressive resources of modern piano can create a truly interesting fantastic essay, which is not less valid than baroque executive praxis ... The articulation plasticity and the pleasure of the flourish invented on the spot are sealed by the warmth given by the timbre of the piano, which is inspired, tender and, sometimes, visionary. ..."

... Andrea Bacchetti, an emergent Genoese pianist with a versatile repertoire, recorded (CD Rca-Sony) Six Sonatas per cembalo by Luigi Cherubini, which he is also performing live. ... These are works written by a twenty-year-old who listens to and assimilates instead of creating. Their best moments are the less predictable ones, in which it is already possible to hear a pre-romantic anxiety.

... So we could discover - and appreciate - the delicious, and for some respects surprising, pianistic trifles of young Cherubini, we had to wait for the record by the Genoese Andrea Bacchetti, an eclectic pianist who, after executing the counterpoint of Bach, Romanticism by Mendelssohn and the experimentalism of Luciano Berio with the same elegance and conviction. ... It's clear that for the Genoese pianist Six Sonatas are more than few unknown pages which have to be disclosed to the audience with his intellectual honesty and stylistic propriety. Bacchetti shows to catch the embryonic germs of a stylistic and emotional research which Cherubini developed in the years of maturity, especially in opera scene. In this execturion, that's smooth as marble, perfect in his sonorous balances, there aren't almost remains of gallant and affected Eighteenth century; every detail is cured with tremendous patience to obtain timbres and dynamics in an almost miraculous harmony. Sonorities are always contained and differences between sonorous plans are just mentioned: fragile structures of these youth pages couldn't stand a too much emphatic interpretation concerning strong contrasts and clean chiaroscuros, and yet Bacchetti doesn't indulge in lightness of pre-classic Eighteenth century ... he guesses other models and suggestions to caught the openings on a expressive world made of continuous modulations, sudden trespasses in minor modality and irregulars phrasings. ... Rightly, Bacchetti doesn't interpret these sonatas through virtuosity filter that can be as attractive as misleading. The timing direct cuts are always moderated, phrasing hasn't sudden accelerations and rondos flow as elegant and quiet composure. ... This is a fine CD, a little jewel of discography. ...

Movies, CDS, DVDS Reviews - CLASSIC Bacchetti: in the Sonatas there are signals of a great future
Il Giornale
- April 13th, 2007 (Lorenzo Arruga)

Andrea Bacchetti is a young, pointed pianist who loves searching for; he knows and plays classics and romantics, but for example he recorded Luciano Berio's compositions being well at ease with nowadays language. Now Bacchetti ventures in Six Sonatas, which were the first publication in 1783 by famous Cherubini - also author of Medea and Great Masses - when he was twenty-three. Written in his age style, Sonatas are brilliant, in two movements, without adagios, playing not an original cembalo but a racy Fazioli, they are searched as best in rhythm and colours contrasts, and in youth happiness they don't hide the future signal of greatness.

At bottom, also Cherubini, the durable monumental learned professor Cherubini, was a boy ... we found out this above suspicion Cherubini in Six Sonatas for cembalo recorded by the Genoese pianist Andrea Bacchetti in a new RCA Red Seal CD. These pages are graceful, all in major, in two movements, but with nice cues and vivid rushes. Bacchetti walks through this chill and mental simplicity with great respect, a cured and sensitive sound, a kind elegance with a rigor that doesn't prelude the gentleness of more affective nuances.

Rareness of this Sony CD consists in proposition of pages for piano written by a composer who is famous for everything else. These Sonatas needed the anxious and fine curiosity of Andrea Bacchetti, a thirty-year-old who has been revealed when he was only four; nowadays Bacchetti can say to have well deserved Karajan and Baugartner's estimate. He is severe and lyrical, researched and modest.

Immediately, he liberates Sonatas from their gallant sheen and according to his usual analytic approach practiced by Bach performances and constructions of contemporary music. ...

It seemed cembalo but was piano. And Cherubini dedicated to it six delicious Sonatas. Now they have been repeated and recorded by Andrea Bacchetti. For the Italian label that was Rubinstein's too.

... After being dedicated to Bach and Mendelssohn, nowadays it's time for Cherubini, a quite-ignored author who is more famous for the opera production than the instrumental one. Bacchetti's execution takes account of a praxis that doesn't disdain some changes to the original text, at least about embellishments and varied repetitions. The pianist says: "I didn't think of a closely philological recovery, and also the choice of a Fazioli has been made for revaluing strong pianistic potentialities of music written in that age and for setting up a very interesting discourse about timbre research and about the 'colour' of Cherubini's Sonatas" ...

Avoiding impending risk of monotony, Andrea Bacchetti's sharp interpretation is able to point out those characterizing aspects of adult Cherubini like modulating anxiety and some harshness in pronunciation - although he never disturbs weaving homogeneity of this neoclassicism ahead of its time. It's a conscious vision that our interpreter goes to recreate with eloquent measure of his pianism characterized by a controlled but always intimately solicited sound.

... Sonatas are interesting because they reveal a pronounced sensibility that emerges and a classic and already well-controlled style. The young Cherubini remarks not only a notable inventive, but also an experimental look that tries to make the Italian cembalist harpsichord tradition younger. ... Bacchetti, an anxious and unpredictable talent, interprets these pages with seriousness and verve and shows musicality and touch sensibility. Execution's intelligence is remarked also by little details like his reject to emphasize most expressive transitions - like that beautiful one in minor key in first part of Sonata n.5 - on which instead he was open to bet if he wanted to get a simple effect and be the pianistic Cherubini's apologist. ...

... Bacchetti's playing throughout the recording is elegant end easy, and his ornaments sound particularly natural and are brought off with great smothness. The distinction between melody lines and accompaniment is always attractively clear, and tempi are weel-chosen; while the pianist clearly possesses an accomplished technique, never is there a hint of pretencious virtuosity. Furthermore, Bacchetti's control of dynamics is often exquisitely judged and executed. The overall standard of piano playing and musicianship is excellent.
