This 2024 Brilliant Classics release offers a new interpretation of Bach's solo cello suites, a cornerstone of the cello repertoire.
- The suites were likely composed between 1717 and 1723, during Bach's tenure as Kapellmeister in Cöthen.
- The original manuscripts of the Cello Suites are lost, and the work survives through copies, the most important being the Anna Magdalena Bach manuscript.
- These suites have been recorded by virtually every major cellist, establishing them as essential études and performance pieces for cellists.
J.S. Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period, widely regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. The Cello Suites, BWV 1007-1012, are his most popular works for solo cello.
