Yasunori Imamura is Japanese but lives in German-speaking Switerzland; which serves as the base for his splendid career. Renowned internationally as a lute soloist and continuo player; his encyclopedic knowledge and unsurpassed skill are often called upon by soloists such as Cecilia Bartoli; Gérard Lesne; Teresa Berganza and Jos van Immerseel as well as by ensembles such as Les Musiciens du Louvre; La Stagione Frankfurt and Le Parlement de Musique. He has contributed to more than 100 recordings; many as a soloist; and now sets out to realize the dream of recording the works by the uncontested master of his instrument; German Baroque composer Silvius Leopold Weiss; admired and esteemed by the great Bach himself. A wonderful recording that is sure not to remain the only.

The first volume of this set featuring the complete lute sonatas by Silvius Leopold Weiss; which was released by Claves in 2006; was crowned with a number of awards including a magnificent Diapason d’or. Two years later Japanese lute player Yasunori Imamura; who now resides in Switzerland; is back with the second volume dedicated to the Baroque master admired by Bach himself.

Imamura; a musician with vast experience (a soloist and continuo player in demand by the greats: Les Musiciens du Louvre; Cecilia Bartoli; Gérard Lesne; Teresa Berganza…) and numerous recordings (more than 100) to his name; has hit the mark again with his unique manner of interpreting Weiss’ music; dignified and whimsical at the same time.
