Recorded in the Organ Hall of the House of Artists (Rudolfinum) from 27 August to 4 September, 1984. In the 'Suites', Bach managed to create music that is highly innovative (it is worth noting that the cello was still developing at the time), and yet he retained his stylistic purity and comprehensibility. While these are formally dance suites, the architecture of some of them is more like that of a cathedral, in part thanks to the wealth of contrapuntal writing. They are a great challenge for everyone who has mastered the cello.
