San Francisco Early Music Society presents: Tanya Tomkins - J.S. Bach Solo Cello Suite November 19, 2010

Bach's Solo Cello Suites are unsurpassed masterpieces, capturing the complexity of human emotion while demonstrating the great technical range and vocal depth of the solo cello.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tanya Tomkins, a virtuoso on both the Baroque and modern cello, is equally at home playing a Bach cello suite in an intimate house concert or anchoring the cello section of the internationally renowned Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra on concert stages around the world. NRC Handelsblad (The Netherlands) describes her as “a cellist with a very special and unusual intensity,” and the Cleveland Plain Dealer calls her "a performer who combines an intense dramatic fire with Apollonian poise.”
