"Violinist Mark Kaplan is hardly the first to present an album of these beloved works—in fact, he himself has done it before—but there is something especially engrossing in this performance. As if conjuring a whole atmosphere of Bach, the sound is full and sumptuous with a balanced ambience throughout Kaplan’s superb interpretation." - Cristina Schreil

"Kaplan creates here an entire world of feeling and emotion. For him, these are obviously not just Bach pieces to be played but major, monumental structures to be explored and savored, note by note and phrase by phrase. By the time you finish just one complete Sonata, you are emotionally drained, but you realize there are two more sonatas and the three partitas yet left to hear" - Lynn René Bayley

"After all these years, we finally have a recording of Bach’s music for solo violin by Mark Kaplan. These are sage performances, and they have a delicate intimacy that befits chamber music of this intimate character." - Magil
