English Suites nos. 1, 3 & 6

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Murray Perahia

English Suites nos. 1, 3 and 6 are keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1715–1720. They exemplify Baroque keyboard style, combining stylised dance forms, contrapuntal textures and elaborate ornamentation, and occupy a significant place in Bach's early keyboard output and in the development of the solo harpsichord repertoire.
