French Suites BWV 812-817

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Evgeni Koroliov

The French Suites BWV 812-817 is a set of six keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1722. They are written in the Baroque dance-suite tradition with French and Italian stylistic influences, and they have ornamented melody lines and contrapuntal textures for harpsichord or clavichord; they belong to Bach's early keyboard output as he developed his style in various court and church positions.
