ENRICO MAINARDI J.S. Bach Cello Solo Suites Nos. 3 & 4 (Archiv Produktion 14044 APM) MINT
RARE German first pressing of Enrico Mainardi`s Bach interpretations "J.S. Bach: Cello Solo Suites Nos. 3 & 4" on the Archiv Produktion sublabel of Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft (1954).
Johann Sebastian Bach's six cello suites (BWV 1007-1012) are considered to be among the most profound of all classical music works. Bach biographer Wilfrid Mellers described them in 1980 as "Monophonic music wherein a man has created a dance of God."
