The "English Suites" are a collection of 6 pieces (BWV 806-811), composed by Johann Sebastian Bach for harpsichord - with a rather virtuoso character. The history of this work is largely in the dark, because the autograph has not been preserved. There are over 30 full or partial transcripts that show clear differences in reading.
