Review by Brandon Holtsclaw

Viola Da Tuba Three Gamba Sonata, a collaborative album by J S Bach, József Bazsinka, and Irina Ivanitskaia, is a truly remarkable piece of music. The album features three sonatas for viola da gamba, tuba, and harpsichord by J S Bach, as well as two contemporary works by Bazsinka and Ivanitskaia.

The musicianship on this album is outstanding. The viola da gamba playing by Bazsinka is sensitive and nuanced, while the tuba playing by Ivanitskaia is powerful and expressive. The harpsichord playing by Bach is masterful, and the three musicians work together seamlessly to create a cohesive and beautiful sound.

The three Bach sonatas are the highlight of the album. The first sonata in G major is a joyful and playful piece, while the second sonata in D major is more contemplative and introspective. The third sonata in G minor is a haunting and melancholic piece that showcases the emotional range of the viola da gamba.

The two contemporary works by Bazsinka and Ivanitskaia are also impressive. Bazsinka's Sonata for Viola da Gamba and Tuba is a lively and energetic piece that blends elements of classical and jazz music. Ivanitskaia's Sonata for Tuba and Harpsichord is a more experimental work that explores the sonic possibilities of the tuba.

Summary by Brandon Holtsclaw

Viola Da Tuba Three Gamba Sonata is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates classical music. The combination of Bach's timeless compositions and the contemporary works by Bazsinka and Ivanitskaia makes for a unique and captivating listening experience.
