Bach French Suite No 5, BWV 816, a unique performance by 4 pianists

"The fifth ‘French’ suite is the most tuneful and elegant of the six. It is also the most Italian..." (Francesco Corti)
Bach wrote the suites "for teaching purposes in his own private circle. The first five appear in their original form in the little music book he compiled in 1722 for his second wife Anna Magdalena, possibly as a wedding present". (Netherland Bach Society)
