BACH - GIGUE, French Suite No. 6 - Marko Hatlak Accordion

This video features the Gigue from Johann Sebastian Bach’s French Suite No. 6, performed by Marko Hatlak on the accordion. Composed between 1722 and 1725, the French Suites are a collection of Baroque dance movements that reflect Bach’s mastery of form, melody, and counterpoint. The Gigue, a lively and energetic dance in compound meter, traditionally serves as the final movement of Baroque dance suites. Originating from English and French dance traditions, it is characterized by its fast tempo, syncopated rhythms, and intricate interplay of voices. Bach’s Gigue is particularly vibrant, closing the suite with a spirited and rhythmically engaging conclusion. This performance is part of our Bach Series, where we interpret the works of J.S. Bach through the expressive sound of the accordion.
