I've had the joy of recomposing the Six Cello Suites of J.S. Bach. The first few suites were an attempt to compose contrapuntal solo piano pieces in the style of J.S. Bach, while as the project progressed, I began to treat each suite with more contemporary, experimental ideas in form, counterpoint and poetic statements. I have currently completed the first 5 Suites, and am currently on the 6th.
Thank you for your interest in this project, and please check back for more details at they develop.
