Bach - Französische Suiten, BWV 812 - 817

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Irina Mejoueva

The Französische Suiten (French Suites), BWV 812–817, are a set of six keyboard suites by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed c. 1722–1725. Written in the Baroque dance-suite tradition for harpsichord or clavichord, they combine a variety of dance movements and ornamental keyboard writing and occupy a transitional position between Bach's earlier suite works and his later, more contrapuntal keyboard compositions.
