Bach, JS - 6 Cello Suites, BWV 1007-1012 - Viola solo - arranged by Watson Forbes - Chester Music Edition

J.S. Bach's Suites for Violoncello , as one of the best compositions ever written for an unaccompanied instrument, has been a staple of the viola repertoire ever since it was first transcribed into alto clef. The six suites explore a variety of tone colors and range in difficulty, providing a continual challenge throughout a player's lifetime. Since no manuscript in Bach's handwriting exists, multiple editions of the suites are available. This edition of the Bach Suites is edited by Watson Forbes and published by J & W Chester. It contains an extensive foreword detailing Forbes' editorial decisions. Difficulty: ASTA grades 3 - 6Click here to learn more about the Apprentice and ASTA Sheet Music Difficulty Ratings.
