Cello Suite No. 3 in C major , BWV 1009

by Johann Sebastian Bach

Cello Baroque Suite ~23 min advanced

The third suite returns to a bright, expansive key and is the most extroverted of the set. The Prelude's brilliant scale passages and bariolage figuration exploit the full sonority of the instrument. The Bourrées are among the most popular individual movements from the suites, frequently performed as encores.
