Daniel Estrem : Bach Harpsichord Suites on Guitar.
Colorful classical guitar.
"I was obliged to be industrious. Whoever is equally industrious will succeed equally well."
Johann Sebastian Bach
There is some doubt in many minds regarding the last sentence. Bach's enormous output of high-quality compositions over a sustained period of time leads one to believe that he had a sense of modesty if not a sense of humor.
J. S Bach (1685-1750) composed his set of 6 English Suites around 1715 while he was living in Weimar, where his position at the Weimar court required him to write a new cantata every week. As if this wasn't enough to keep him occupied, he wrote these suites to fulfill his desire to create new instrumental music.
His set of 6 French Suites were composed between 1722 and 1725 and display some of Bach's most popular and accessible keyboard writing. These suites are not particularly "French" in idiom, lack preludes, and are shorter and less complex than the English Suites. Both French and English Suites were named at a later time by someone other than the composer. Like Bach's other suites, they follow a largely Italian tradition.
