🎻 Bach | Cello Suite No.2 in D minor, BWV 1008 Solo Cello – Complete Performance 🎼 Program Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) Suite for Solo Cello No.2 in D minor, BWV 1008 🎻 Performed on Solo Cello 📝 About the Music Johann Sebastian Bach’s Suite for Solo Cello No.2 in D minor, BWV 1008 is often regarded as the most introspective of the six cello suites. In contrast to the openness of the First Suite, the Second Suite explores a darker tonal landscape, shaped by lower resonance, firm bass direction, and concentrated emotional weight. Through implied harmony and careful registral design, Bach creates the illusion of polyphony within a single melodic line. Although the suite follows the traditional Baroque dance order, each movement feels less like a dance and more like a journey— moving through tension, reflection, and eventual resolution. This video presents the complete suite from Prelude to Gigue, inviting the listener to focus on breath, resonance, and tonal depth. 🎼 Movements 00:00 Prelude 03:35 Allemande 07:19 Courante 09:50 Sarabande 15:11 Menuet I & II 18:15 Gigue 🎻 Performance Information Performer: [Pierre Fournier] 🎙 Recording & Video Recording Date: [1961] Audio / Video: [Grands enregistrements Deutsche Grammophon] Headphones recommended 🎧 Best enjoyed with attention to phrasing, resonance, and breath #Bach #CelloSuiteNo1 #BWV1008 #SoloCello #ClassicalMusic #Baroque Thank you for listening.
