Cello Suites Nos. 2, 3 & 4

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Yo‐Yo Ma

Cello Suites Nos. 2, 3 & 4 are three of the Six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in the early 18th century (c. 1717–1723). They exemplify Baroque solo repertoire through dance-derived movements and implied polyphony on a single instrument, combining technical demands with expressive lyricism and occupying a central place in Bach's output for solo string instruments and in the cello repertoire.

First released: 2005
