Cello Suites

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Maria Kliegel

The Cello Suites are a set of six suites for unaccompanied cello by German Baroque composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1717–1723. Rooted in the Baroque dance-suite tradition, they feature successive dance movements and idiomatic, often polyphonic writing that explores the cello's range and technical possibilities, and they occupy a central place in Bach's output as staple repertoire for solo cello performance.
