The French Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Andrei Gavrilov

The French Suites are a set of six keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed c. 1722–1725. Rooted in Baroque dance forms and characterised by elegant counterpoint and ornamentation, they exemplify Bach's early keyboard style and hold a notable place in the harpsichord and piano repertoire.
