The French Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Glenn Gould

The French Suites are a set of six keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1722. Rooted in Baroque dance forms and written for solo harpsichord or clavichord, they feature stylised dances, elaborate ornamentation and contrapuntal textures that illustrate Bach's approach to keyboard composition and reflect his work in the Köthen period.
