Recensioni
Bach’s Preludes and fugues were rarely heard more adequate, fuller, richer, more lyrical, more turbulent and more laborious than on these four CDs.
Paul Janssen – Luister February 2024
I found Cera’s artistry both engaging and persuasive. Articulation is superb and the readings reveal an artist skilful in the delineation of voice parts.
Stephen Greenbank – Musicweb International October 19, 2023
Clavier bien tempéré de Bach plein d’éloquence avec Francesco Cera au clavecin. La version de Franceso Cera au clavecin se distingue par une approche très informée, tant par la technique propre au clavier baroque que par son art du discours.
Frédéric Munoz – Resmusica.com March 7, 2024
Engaging, interesting and Thoughtful, Francesco Cera’s performance of The Well-Tempered Clavier. He gives voice to the voices and instead of just a dry plain reading we hear an enlivened elocution. It is as if he recited the music for us.
