St Swithin's Church
MENUSuite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007
Suite No. 5 in C minor, BWV 1011
Bach’s Cello Suites are among his very finest compositions. The achievement of creating a huge variety of emotions and virtuoso techniques on one solo instrument is quite extraordinary. One of today’s leading cellists Guy Johnston will play all six suites over three concerts, taking us on a wonderful musical journey.
‘Guy Johnston gives a towering performance that responds to the score’s every shift in mood with complete assurance.’ BBC Music Magazine
