Cello Suites Nos. 1-3

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Paul Tortelier

Cello Suites Nos. 1-3 are three suites for solo cello by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1717 to 1723. They are written in the Baroque style and use dance movements and contrapuntal textures to explore the range and timbre of the solo cello, and they are central to Bach's output for unaccompanied instruments and to the classical cello repertoire.
