The Cello Suites: J. S. Bach, Pablo Casals, and the Search for A Baroque Masterpiece
by

A light biography of both Pablo Casals and J.S. Bach, vaguely centered around Bach's Cello suites. Siblin provides some explanation of the musical pieces themselves, but the vast majority of the book concerns itself with the life of these two figures. While it wasn't the book I hoped for (which would be a easily accessible jaunt through the musical theory that would explain why I love the Prelude for Suite 1), I enjoyed learning more about Bach and Casals and their political/social worlds.
