Bach, Suite for Solo Cello in C major, BWV 1009

Synopsis

The six suites for violoncello solo by Johann Sebastian Bach are a pillar in this instrument's repertoire. Just as a pianist will always confront himself with a standard work such as Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier," so does a cellist keep tackling these highly demanding solo suites throughout his life. Mischa Maisky recorded the complete cycle for television in 1986.
