This record is about reparation. History has not let two extraordinary composers meet each other. Georg Friedrich Handel and Johann Sebastian Bach came to the world in 1785, one month apart. Twice they failed to meet each other and never again would their life paths cross, instead following parallel ways. This album is dedicated to this failure.

Lina Tur Bonet and Dani Espasa offer here a record that reflects multiple questions, engaging a critical dialogue. If Bach and Handel’s sonatas are facing each other, it is mostly their voices that echo to one another. By choosing these works, Lina Tur

Bonet and Dani Espasa recreate, for an instant, the encounter of the two German composers whose existences suddenly merge into one. This is the exact meaning of the matter of music, being able to suspend the time for a moment by giving birth to something that has never been before.

Lina Tur Bonet and Dani Espasa prove to be true magicians on this recording and their exceptional reinterpretation reveals the whole deepness and closeness that these works and their composers share.

Lina Tur Bonet, violin
Dani Espasa, harpsichord

Bach was interested in Handel and had his scores.
In 1719 Bach went to see Handel in Halle but Handel had already left.
Bach once invited him to Leipzich but Handel in Halle rejected it in 1729 :(
Ton Koopman makes a guess that Bach went to Hamburg to see Handel in 1706 after Bach had met Buxtehude in Lübeck because Handel had come to see Buxtehude 2 years before and Bach didn't come home for one month.
My friend Lisa plays passionately but sound is too near or in bathroom ?
Thanks
