Suites nos. 2, 3, 4 & 5 for Solo Cello

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Daniil Shafran

Suites Nos. 2, 3, 4 & 5 for Solo Cello are part of Johann Sebastian Bach's set of six suites for unaccompanied cello, composed circa 1717–1723. Rooted in Baroque dance forms and contrapuntal writing, these suites adapt multi-voiced textures to a single instrument through implied polyphony, demanding technical agility and expressive nuance, and they occupy a foundational place in the solo cello repertoire and performance practice.
