	mondo marion: Pieter Wispelwey
		Cellist Pieter Wispelwey takes a very different approach, challenging his listeners with sometimes homely tone, playing that can be rough-hewn, and musicianship of commanding integrity and power.
		Wispelwey's Bach, to be sure, has the modesty of Vermeer's paintings, which can pack whole universes of detail and meaning into less than a square foot of canvas.
		Wispelwey summoned grinding, almost rubbery sounds for the sarabande and a saucy, dance-like motion for the first bourrée, concluding with a lurching, stomping gigue.

		Pieter Wispelwey is particularly distinguished for the poetic quality in his playing - evident in the second movement of the Shostakovich, but equally so in the Kodaly sonata.
		The Adagio is particularly subtle and expressive, Wispelwey generating a compelling narrative through the complex sequence of monodic lines, Jano Starker's many recordings of this work also reflect an instinctive sense of rubato, and empathy with the assimilated folk music, but no one matches the mesmerising atmosphere of this recording.
		The solo cadenza - which is separately tracked on the CD - bears witness to Wispelwey's brilliant technique (not least his seamless bowing) and the finale, his close rapport with the orchestra.

		I caught up with Wispelwey in May while he was in the midst of three performances of the Dvorak concerto with the Los Angeles Philharmonic conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen.
		Onstage, Wispelwey's practice is as good as his theory and an audible hush falls over the audience when he plays that beautiful melody with the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

	Pieter Wispelwey Online
		Wispelwey is one of the most versatile and intelligent cellists around at present, and the unforced naturalness of his approach really does touch to the marrow (the Adagio is exemplary, entirely free of surface gloss or affectation, and all the more moving for it).
		Wispelwey's countryman, Jac van Steen, deserves equal praise; indeed, the contribution of the Netherlands Radio PO under his thoughtful, ideally supple guidance is past praise in its eager application (their woodwind is particularly characterful).
		Hats off to all concerned- and Wispelwey's essay in the booklet, commenting at once perceptively and generously on his great predecessors in the interpretation of the concerto, is icing on the cake....

		Wispelwey was born in the Netherlands to a musical family—his father played in an amateur string quartet. His early teachers fostered his love for Baroque music that continues to this day, and Wispelwey is known for his performances and recordings of the Bach cello suites.
		Wispelwey has appeared as a recitalist all over the world and has toured and recorded with a host of orchestras and ensembles.
		Wispelwey prides himself on earning acclaim by pursuing his musical interests rather than the spotlight. Instead of following a mainstream career track of competitions and prizes, he has pursued a sometimes obscure and unusual repertoire to the delight of audiences and the critics.

	INKPOT#78 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: J.S.BACH Cello Suites. Wispelwey (Channel)
		Wispelwey is aware even of the dangers of writing on this macroscopic music, when he describes the music as "less pompous than the words it can tempt us to use." And tempt it does, and I am guilty of being tempted far too many times.
		The score of the opening prelude of the First Suite, with its endless semiquavers, shows no indication of tempo or rhythmic variation (except for the two pauses) and yet it is suffused with the myriad beauty of rubato.
		Wispelwey calls the courante of the Fifth Suite "clenched with power", and certainly he drives it along with great strength, but also a "masculine" grace.

		However I firmly believe that the Wispelwey set makes a valuable addition to the excisting catalogue in its portrayal of a down-to-earth kind of humanism.
		Wispelwey suggests as a "prelude" to the following sonatas and partitas for violin, or merely as a true challenge from a man of startling originality.
		Wispelwey's warm colourful and spicy sound and his marvellous sense of the dance, brings out the gritty and shiny, the smelly and the perfumed, the humoristic and the profound, all balanced to perfection by a musician for whome these works are everyday encounters rather than holiday rituals.

		I was not so much aware of this until I heard Pieter Wispelwey play them differently—all three at one sitting—at the Longie School.
		Revisiting Wispelwey's earlier transversal of the suites on Globe, I found them more pensive than the new ones, with still longer timings.
		The improvements I heard on the Wispelwey are just as obvious as they are on the Podger recording.

	Australian Chamber Orchestra/Pieter Wispelwey - Arts Reviews - Arts - smh.com.au
		But his arrangement of Cesar Franck's much-loved Violin Sonata in A as a work for cello and orchestra with cellist Pieter Wispelwey was an untoward meddling with a noble work.
		Tognetti added a bassoon part to the all-string arrangement and while this did add grit to the ominous bass-register textures which open the third movement, the part was not well-integrated into the ensemble.
		Wispelwey's playing always has intensity; so much intensity in this case that his bow snapped in the second movement.

	Pieter Wispelwey Plays Bach @ Wigmore Hall, London : concert review
		Pieter Wispelwey, who has recorded this repertoire twice before, gave a captivating recital of the six suites to an appreciative audience, recorded by Radio 3 for broadcast just over a week later.
		Wispelwey began with a radiant first suite, demonstrating a tasteful rhythmic flexibility in the Prelude, while making the Minuets bounce as if cueing in imaginary dancers.
		De-tuning the top 'A' string for the fifth suite, Wispelwey visited darker colourings, making more of a demand on the audience but achieving a rare clarity in the fiendish fugue.
