J.S. Bach: Orchestral Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Richard Egarr & Academy of Ancient Music

Orchestral Suites (BWV 1066–1069) are a set of four orchestral works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1717–1723. They exemplify the Baroque suite and orchestral overture style, combining French and German dance movements with contrapuntal writing and varied orchestral colour, and they occupy a central place in Bach's instrumental output and the Baroque repertoire.
