Bach, JS - 6 Suites, BWV 1007-1012 - Viola solo - arranged by Samuel Lifschey - G Schirmer 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 is arranged by Samuel Lifschey and published by G. Schirmer.
