6 Suites a Violoncello Solo senza Basso

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Bruno Cocset

The Six Suites for Violoncello Solo senza Basso (BWV 1007–1012) are a set of six suites for solo cello by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1717–1723. Written in the Baroque dance-suite tradition, the suites employ idiomatic cello writing, clear melodic lines and implied polyphony to explore the technical and expressive possibilities of unaccompanied cello, and they occupy a central place in the cello repertoire and the history of solo string literature.
