A LA CARTE #2 - Bach: Cello Suites (Markevitch)

We are repurposing the music from a Once Upon the Internet post of Nov 18, 2014 as a new montage in our ongoing A la Carte series on For Your Listening Pleasure. The following notes are an update with useful links we have created or discovered since the original post.

The original post, featuring cello music by Beethoven and Bach, is being “mashed up” into a pair of new playlists, the first of which features Bach’s suites for solo cello.

 

This new musical share, in tandem with another playlist from the Once Upon the Internet series completes the set of six suites.

 

The second suite was taken from the complete set recorded by Mr. Markevitch, found on YouTube at the following URLs:

 

Volume 1 (Suites 1, 3, 5) - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_n3NEvpaduZRxwqUcLXxDI1a6kqo25eiFs

 

Volume 2 (Suites 2, 4 6) - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kJFwGb1LncFxjgkHUHVCkEyvngReC9Pdw

 

Happy (further) listening!

 

Johann Sebastian BACH (1685-1750)
