Cello Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Alisa Weilerstein

The Six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello is a collection of six suites for solo cello by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed between 1717 and 1723. They are Baroque works that use dance-based movements and independent polyphonic lines to imply harmony, and they demand a wide technical and expressive range that influenced later cello writing.
