Cello Suites nos. 1-3

Album by Benjamin Britten & Truls Mørk

Cello Suites Nos. 1–3 are three suites for solo cello composed by English composer Benjamin Britten in 1964. The works draw on Baroque suite forms and mid-20th-century harmonic and textural language, combining dance-derived movements, lyrical and introspective passages and extended cello techniques, and they form part of Britten's late chamber output and the 20th-century solo cello repertoire.
