Complete Cello Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Emmanuelle Bertrand

Complete Cello Suites is a set of six suites for solo cello by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed between approximately 1717 and 1723. Distinctly rooted in Baroque dance forms and contrapuntal technique, the suites explore a wide range of expressive and technical possibilities for the instrument and are foundational to the solo cello repertoire and Baroque performance practice.
