Daniil Shafran performing "Bach Suites for Solo Cello" on Yedang Classics. This is truly some of the best solo cello playing I've ever heard and the recording quality is top notch. It is "raw", "intense", and the "presence" is unbelieveable! Try to find it on this label and you will not regret it.

Hello Macallan25

Here is a link to my recommendation above for the Daniil Shafran. It truly is a spectacular performance and excellent recording quality as well. At the price, it is well worth you trying.

I hope that this will be helpful.
