In this beautifully crafted video, created in collaboration with Noir Film, Miriam Prandi performs the Courante from Bach’s Cello Suite No. 2 in D minor, BWV 1008, merging her deeply expressive playing with a subtle visual narrative. The film alternates close-ups of Prandi with images of city life and nature, where ambient sounds blend gently with the cello, creating a poetic interplay between instrument and environment.
Prandi’s interpretation reflects both freedom and devotion: she honours the architecture of Bach’s music while allowing her phrasing to breathe with spontaneity and grace. Her tone is direct, never mannered, revealing a musician who understands that reverence for Bach does not mean restraint, but clarity and presence.
The video accompanies her complete recording of the Six Cello Suites on Outhere Music, coming out on January 16, 2026, available here
