@XDranzer000 As far as I know It's because of European music history! :-) The 'Suite' form developed in France in 17th century. Musicians and composers were very curious about what was new in music and they traveled and corresponded a lot more than you would think! The suite with the french names was very popular until mid -18th century. Sometimes called Suite de dances or Ouverture or Partita.
I can't believe this whole TH-cam channel exists, for free. It's like all you needed to access to Heaven was a wifi connection. I can't believe the quality of every single interpretation/video. How is it even possible to listen to all of this for free? I just can't believe it. I found the channel only this morning and I spent the day listening to it feverishly. I worship every single member of the Netherlands Bach Society. Thank you so much. You don't know how much all these videos are a source of joy to a fan of Bach like me.
Many thanks for these kind words! It was our main goal from the start to keep All of Bach for free. It is indeed an expensive project, but all worth it! The last 4 years we received funds from Dutch subsidiaries, and since May it is possible for private donors to donate money. Check our page allofbach.com/en/support-us/ for more info!
For me, it’s Enrico Dindo’s, then Rostropovich’s, but this is a fantastic interpretation. Really getting a lot of wild character from that baroque bow, fantastically different to conventional interps. Wow
I really really love this Performance!! I can't tell why but every other interpretation of this piece from other cellists sounded lifeless to me. Pincombe did a great job and I would love to hear his interpretation of the other suites with this kind of emotion. Thank you Steuart!
This was the description of life itself. It starts calmly then gets to the excitement and joy of youth but then the joy is interrupted by great sadness and melancoly. The sarabande is the turning point, the crisis that tempers human life. The menuets are the coping with life's adversity, the acceptance and resignation to its imperfections but also humankind's resilience to withstand difficulties and at last the synthesis of life and death, good and evil. I admired most the interpretation of the sarabande. Such outcry of pain, strife and misery, the cellist surpassed the possible! His instrument became the human voice of ignored supplications, fervent pleas, anxious plaidoyers, it was great and terrifying, violent and complaining at once, it was the catharsis of life and its sense. I salute this cellist with respect and admiration.
If you are angry, listen to Bach music If you are upset, listen to Bach music If you are in traffic jam, listen to Bach music To decompress from your day job, listen to Bach music To forget your worries, listen to Bach music If life annoys you, listen to Bach music To get closer to the deity, listen to Bach music
Dude... you can just listen to the cello suites alone and all of life is covered. Add a violin or flute partita and well.. we just have so much more than we deserve. J.j.
How. HOw. HOW! How can anyone remember every note and just play it off by heart? Magic! This guy is a freakin SUPERMAN. SUPER BRAIN. And yeah. One of the best musicians I've ever heard. My God! It is sooooo amazing!
That "Minuet I" totally blew my mind. I've been hearing it wrong and playing it wrong for years! This recording is the first I've heard that makes the pulse feel correct; I just didn't realize it before. Awesome.
I was doing something else while this was playing. When it was over, I realized I had been unconsciously mesmerized. So I played the whole video again.
I will never tire of this. This is almost unique in classical performances. You can tell it's him; who's playing it, based on his own interpretation. Fantastic and irreplaceable.
I profoundly love this interpretation. It is unique and intense. I'd like to thank Mr Pincombe for his soul and passion as well as for his amazing talent.
The depth of soulfulness in this interpretation of Bach just floors me. That's an amazing sounding instrument in the hands of a sound poet, too. Big thank you for playing with so much love and total emotional investment and technical finesse!
Je trouve que c'est la plus belle interprétation que j'ai pu écouter à ce jour!!! Il sait parfaitement compris que les moments de silence SONT de la musique!
This man is incredible... when he plays, it seems that all the depth of the world emerges and that creativity overflows, to get out of any other interpretation of this work. A true and rare artist, a light among the shadows. People like him are going to bring public back again to classical music.
The Allemande of this piece remains my favorite playing of a Bach piece, Wen Sinn Yang's performance of #1 comes in close as second. I enjoyed #1 in this series but felt that while it was more emotive, it was choppy. Bravo to the NBS but Wen Sinn Yang's #1 is worth searching for and listening to.
I wonder if Bach realized that there was a thread of Heaven woven through his soul. Listening to his works is like my hand being gently clasped and being led through a continuum of joy.
@@josephcambron7060 Yet histrionics adds to musicality. Specially when it's a visual perform also, helps transmission of emotions and creates a feeling of confidence that's greatly appreciated.
Я не могу поверить, что такой великолепный канал существует на Ютубе бесплатно! Даже думать не хочу, сколько труда и сил вложили создатели хотя бы в один этот ролик. Отдельный низкий поклон музыканту вдохновенному - на него можно смотреть даже в беззвучном режиме, всё равно видно, как он выкладывается.
Such beauty, one of the most magnificent recordings I've ever seen. A very rich interpretation of this 2nd Suite, loved it. Most times when the camerawork is overdone it only serves as a distraction, but this was so tastefully done, even during the fast movements. TH-cam recommend strikes again, I've discovered an amazing channel.
Bravo! Bravo! What a spiritually as well as musically satisfying experience! The tempos for the Prelude, Allemande and Sarabande are the first time that I’ve heard someone besides myself decide that they need to be slower in order to bring out the pathos and longing that is inherent in Bach’s sublime music. I will be sharing this performance with my students and fellow cellists. I can’t thank you enough for these 22 minutes of pure beauty.
This is the sound of a one man renaissance. Thank you to the Netherlands Bach Society and to the fine people that made this happen. Wonderfully played and recorded. Very kindly appreciated. Thank you!

Man, to me you sound like the dark forest himself playing. Such a raw, yet awe inspiring sound. Usually when listening to classical music the awe feels like coming from above. But you somehow managed to let god drive into me from below, from the dark humus with its earth worms. Smell of pines, scent of heaven.
On a high quality speaker set this sounds absolutely sublime. This channel does not spare expenses when recording their performances, and people who listen on shitty speakers or headphones are missing out, big time. You notice the lack of visible mics, yet theyre able to capture such richness of tone. I can even hear the imperfections in the shifts and string noise, and the breaths. Means theyre using some expensive equipment
I've just started playing cello - 1 year in, and it is incredible artists like this that both inspire and intimidate, and make me renew my efforts to improve. I am very thankful for the wonderful gift of this music from this very talented cellist. Not sure if I'l ever get to this level, but at least I know what to aspire to.
Close your eyes and listen. I'm not a connoisseur of classical music, but the suites I've heard from Bach, squeeze your heart to the limit, and from one moment to another you rejoice the soul.
Si beau, si grand, si profond. Interprétation majestueuse. J’adore sans réserve. Le tempo est lent à mon sens comme il se doit. Cela ajoute de la gravité et de la profondeur. Tout ici conduit l’homme à la méditation !
I'm impressed how this video can translate Bach to a visual narrative. Excelent performance. Congratulations to the Netherlands Bach Society! Greattings from Brazil.
I always love watching professional cellists play. They break every 'rule' your average teacher has about posture and bow holds, and literally each one has some different way of sitting/holding the cello/bowing/etc. Just goes to show you it doesn't matter how you do it. Just make it sound good. Also just realized this guy is playing old school style without an endpin. Sick.
It's because it is playing it in "old style", using a baroque bow, and the baroque posture, to be most historically accurate, I think they also tuned the cello with the baroque tuning, but I can't tell if it is a baroque cello or not
He actually used to be my teacher. He definitely has very high standards for his students and lessons are not easy. Still teaches rules about bow holds and posture.
Some rules are more like guidelines, others are absolutes. Some apply only in certain situations. One of the worst errors with situational technique was when the French decided the legato technique developed by Lemmens should be applied to everything unless explicitly specified, including music written before the techniques were developed.
The second Suite always brings to my mind images of an atypically introspective tired old sea pirate trying to put his finger on where it all went wrong. I really enjoy how heavily Pincombe's interpretation leans into the musical elements that bring those images to my mind.
I have been listening to this piece since the late 80s and am now learning it, slowly. I’ve never heard a performance that pleases me more. The sound is also ideally captured by AoB. This cellist has profoundly good taste and an excellent technique. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
Thank you for all you do.... I'm in tears listening to this as I realize it's the closest I will get to Bach.... Palms together, I bow to you, thank you.

Bach's music is so beautiful that there are no words to describe it ... I love it!
I think there are two basic types of performers the first type is a person who is fresh out of school and plays like a robot perfect technique and timing. And the second type the person who plays with his heart. Thank you for sharing the energy of your heart :)
Captivating and breathtaking. I didn't really have the time to listen to the whole thing. But once I started I couldn't help but listen to it all out of respect for the artistry.
It was a privilege and unforeseen blessing to meet Steuart in Oberlin in 2018. Thanks for bringing Oberlin kids to Divine Liturgy, and for this transportive recording! God bless.
Tears don't come easily from a stoic like me. A few were shed listening to this beauty. Thank you Universe for putting everything in place to create JS Bach's music. Fortunate indeed are we.
I love this interpretation. Honestly I'm just glad that someone is not acting like they're in a hurry to get to the end of the Cello Suite. You can tell his favorite cellist was Pau Casals
Steuart Pincombe, You are truly a gift of music to the human soul. You are very talented, you are sincere & so humble. I listen to you in my office when I’m working and I’m so uplifted hearing you play. Thank you very much!
Mon Dieu.... Je suis transportée à chaque fois que j'écoute du Bach, au bord des larmes à chaque fois. Je ne comprends pas cette réaction, suis-je la seule ?
Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieser etwas melancholischen und perfekt komponierten Suite im gut phrasierten Tempo mit ein bisschen neue-sachlichem Ton des Solocellos und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wahrlich genialer Cellist!
This suite is even more introspective than the 5th one in C minor. It is a complete contrast when heard just after the previous one, the suite 1 in G major.
This is absolutely excellent work by the Netherlands Bach Society. Imagine when the project is done? I thank God this ended up in my TH-cam recommended videos.
Amazing piece!. I am always in awe of musicians playing baroque instruments / gut strings and the tonal qualities produced. I keep coming back and listening again to this piece!
I'm so happy to see the new guard breathing life into their interpretation of Bach! Everything is wonderful here - the Courante my particular favourite. Bravo!!
This is by far my favourite performance of the 2nd suite. It serves as a big source of inspiration for my own playing and I'm very grateful to have found this amazing artist via this channel.
Eine uneingeschränktes Vergnügen! Die Arbeiten der Netherlands Bach Society zeigen musikalisch wie filmisch höchstes Niveau, immer wieder neue überraschende Blickwinkel. Jeder Film ist ein sorgfältig inszeniertes Gesamtkunstwerk. Vor dem Team würde ich jetzt den Hut ziehen, wenn ich einen hätte.
A beautiful piece, a beautiful interpretation, a beautiful instrument. Just beautiful. I am also impressed by some of the camera work, which makes it visually interesting. I can't thank you enough.
Played by the book: no excessive thrillers, metrics preserved, harmony and melody also. Yet, output is pure jazz. Contemplative. Single tones were haiku and each pause sounded like thunder. Milestone performance. Bravo!
Sorry about my English, I am a solo cello, from a litle orchestra, and I was very lucky to study with other international solo cellos ... This version and this cellist is really amazing ... I will copy a lot of him ... who I can study with him ... do it! greetings from Argentina...
That was so indescribably beautiful …to see someone fully attending to beauty and to the soul ….Thankyou . And Thankyou for keeping it pure, no adverts , I really appreciate this .
As of April 20th, 2021, 41K people make me have hope for Humanity, 774 make me preoccupied... I mean, you may not appreciate Bach or Baroque Music, but why, oh why you have to leave a dislike? Just go and find whatever you love. I want to express my opinion that if I had to select a sample of 10 videos from TH-cam to present the achievements of Humankind, this would be one of them. Thank you so much to the musician for cultivating such a talent, and thank you to all of those involved in the production of the video. As to the 774 dislikings of this video, that makes about 2%: on a typical day if 2 in 100 people dislike you, there are chances that you are really good: let's take what's positive in this. :)

This guy is a magician. Almost made me cry with his interpretation. It's just a wow.
“The final aim and reason of all music is nothing other than the glorification of God and the refreshment of the spirit.”
― J.S. Bach
I think Maestro Bach would have been proud of this performance. How admirable it is!
Finally! - a cellist who fully understands the ornamental basis of Bach's musical notation. Sublime.
I’ve played and listened to the suites for 26 years and this is by far one of the best version I’ve ever heard, absolute fan, thank you
Whats your favorite playing of this?

Bach played by a monumental cello player!!!!!!! (with a first class cello). Thanks Netherlands Bach Society
I wonder if Bach realized that there was a thread of Heaven woven through his soul. Listening to his works is like my hand being gently clasped and being led through a continuum of joy.
A man with passion, a cello and a beautiful empty chamber to play music = success.
You said that right brother.no long lips and depressing people who dont get the music,or constantly coughing or distracting from the music.
This guy is UNREAL...I don't want to swear...but I can't believe this. Been studying these suites for most of my life...I'm in awe.
Just gotta practice for 40 hours a day.
Probably my favorite interpretation of suite 2! Love his musicality and introspective quality

This is absolutely excellent work by the Netherlands Bach Society. Imagine when the project is done? I thank God this ended up in my TH-cam recommended videos.
The camera moving through the chairs and finally finding the performer beautifully resembles the "searching" idea of the piece.
My deepest gratitude for all the beautiful music that you have so generously posted. It sustains, uplifts and inspires a desire to be my best self.
The 6 Cello Suites are the greatest achievement by any artist No matter who plays them , and this one is very good.
He makes it sound almost like a viola da gamba. His sound is very masculine, too. He plays with true fire and intelligence.
Bravo!
David A- what exactly does 'feminine' sound like - lacking fire and intelligence??
Judging by the bow and the overall position in which he is playing, he's using a baroque cello, so yeah, almost a viola da gamba
Amazing piece!. I am always in awe of musicians playing baroque instruments / gut strings and the tonal qualities produced. I keep coming back and listening again to this piece!
Absolument, littéralement sublime.

The camera work in the Courante (8:52) really captured the passion of a remarkable performance. Wow!
This is by far my favourite performance of the 2nd suite. It serves as a big source of inspiration for my own playing and I'm very grateful to have found this amazing artist via this channel.
pocas veces se oye ese nivel de comprensión de la afinación en las suites para violonchelo solo, además de tan sentida versión. bravo
Went through a whole box of tissues listening to this.
Thank you for posting, and of course the masterful performance!
Eine uneingeschränktes Vergnügen!
Die Arbeiten der Netherlands Bach Society zeigen musikalisch wie filmisch höchstes Niveau, immer wieder
neue überraschende Blickwinkel. Jeder Film ist ein sorgfältig inszeniertes Gesamtkunstwerk. Vor dem Team
würde ich jetzt den Hut ziehen, wenn ich einen hätte.
Bach's music - and indeed Steuart's interpretation of it - represents the pinnacle of human achievement.
What a wonderful interpretation. I can't even stand it 😭❤
A beautiful piece, a beautiful interpretation, a beautiful instrument. Just beautiful. I am also impressed by some of the camera work, which makes it visually interesting. I can't thank you enough.
Played by the book: no excessive thrillers, metrics preserved, harmony and melody also. Yet, output is pure jazz.
Contemplative. Single tones were haiku and each pause sounded like thunder.
Milestone performance. Bravo!
Not played by the book! Metrics Not preserved! Jazz? WTF Stupid comment to say the least.
Sorry about my English, I am a solo cello, from a litle orchestra, and I was very lucky to study with other international solo cellos ... This version and this cellist is really amazing ... I will copy a lot of him ... who I can study with him ... do it! greetings from Argentina...
Thank you for making feel like a human being I cried.
That was so indescribably beautiful …to see someone fully attending to beauty and to the soul ….Thankyou . And Thankyou for keeping it pure, no adverts , I really appreciate this .
As of April 20th, 2021, 41K people make me have hope for Humanity, 774 make me preoccupied... I mean, you may not appreciate Bach or Baroque Music, but why, oh why you have to leave a dislike? Just go and find whatever you love. I want to express my opinion that if I had to select a sample of 10 videos from TH-cam to present the achievements of Humankind, this would be one of them. Thank you so much to the musician for cultivating such a talent, and thank you to all of those involved in the production of the video. As to the 774 dislikings of this video, that makes about 2%: on a typical day if 2 in 100 people dislike you, there are chances that you are really good: let's take what's positive in this. :)
