Concerts from around the country, recorded by Concertzender (Classical & Early Music). Pieter Wispelwey plays the cello suites of Bach.
During the New Year’s Concert on 13 January 2017 cellist Pieter Wispelwey played all six cello suites of Johann Sebastian Bach at the Noorderkerk.
We then supplied a live stream and today we broadcast the recordings we made on that day.
Unfortunately, not all six suites can be heard, but we will play suites 1 to 5. We owe you the sixth.
