Solo I

BACH

Johann Sebastian Bach [1685-1750]
Suite G-major, C-major, c-minor for Violoncello solo


Sometimes the loss of something becomes a profit in reality: Bach’s handwritten notations got lost, one hundred years later his suites were printet for the first time, today we know far more than one hundred different editions. Everyone can go on his own search.

Sometimes, if inventional spirit meets art patroning, truly revolutionary ideas occure like in Bologna [music by Antonii, Vitali, Gabrielli] at the end of the 17. century. The incredible silver covering of the deep strings and the prince of nearby Modena [Colombi, Galli] forced the final breakthrough of the Violoncello in Naples [Scipriani] or central Germany [Bach].
