—SIX SUITES | SIX VOICES—
Come enjoy the supremely popular and beloved Six Suites for Cello Solo by JS BACH through the voices of six cellists in a an old mill.
"For me, Bach is the greatest musical genius to ever live. His music is pure, sublime and human. The cello suites posses something almost divine, and each cellist has a lifetime to discover new ways of playing them. A journey through them is a journey that teaches us about our humanity." - Artist Director: Joseph Kuipers
