The Bach Cello Suites and the baroque cello
a community website and research by Marianne Dumas
... and unique project
"Some move the bow as it is customary on the viola da gamba, that is, instead of a down-stroke from left to right for the principal notes, they make an up-stroke from right to left, beginning from the tip of the bow."
Berlin 1752, J. J. Quantz about cellists
Creating this website was not part of the project at first but I got to a point where I had a collected so much information on the topic that I thought it would be good to share everything with other cellists and lovers of the Bach Cello Suites.
