The Lute Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Franz Halász

The Lute Suites are a set of solo lute suites by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They transpose Baroque dance forms and Bach's contrapuntal keyboard techniques to the lute, featuring intricate polyphony, ornamented melodic lines and a mixture of intimate and contrapuntal textures that reflect his instrumental work from the Köthen period.
