Englische Suiten BWV 806-811

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Huguette Dreyfus

The English Suites BWV 806-811 are a set of six keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed c. 1715-1720. They are Baroque keyboard works that blend French and Italian dance forms with dense counterpoint and elaborate ornamentation, and they appear early in Bach's keyboard output prior to his later Well-Tempered Clavier.
