Orchestral Suites 3 & 4

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Nikolaus Harnoncourt

Orchestral Suites Nos. 3 and 4 are orchestral suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in the early to mid-18th century. They exemplify the Baroque orchestral dance-suite genre, featuring contrasting dance movements, varied orchestral textures and prominent string and brass writing, and they illustrate Bach's approach to orchestration and the adaptation of French and German dance forms within his instrumental output.
