Bach - French Suite no. 1 in D minor BWV 812 - Corti | Netherlands Bach Society

The 'French' Suite no. 1 in D minor, performed by Francesco Corti for All of Bach, is the most classical of the six ‘French’ suites. Bach keeps strictly to the usual order of the dances: allemande, courante, sarabande, two minuets and a gigue. According to Corti, it is possibly even the most archaic of all Bach’s suites. In other words, it is an ideal piece for becoming familiar with the genre and the various dance forms in their purest style. Recorded for the project All of Bach on January 18th 2017 at the Bartolotti House, Amsterdam.
