As played by the Boston Cello Quartet on its debut CD.
The famous Aria from J.S.Bach's Cantata BWV 208, in a version for 4 Cellos.
The 1st Cello has the melody quite high on the fingerboard.
Cellos 2&3 play the accompanying part originally played by the 2 flutes.
Those parts alternate the tricky countermelody with more passive accompanying lines.
The 4th Cello plays the bass.
A beautiful and peaceful piece of music.
Commercial recording not allowed.
Includes 4 Cello Parts and the Full Score.
