Bach - French Suite no. 4 in E-flat major BWV 815 - Hantaï | Netherlands Bach Society

Bach frequently constructs melodies from small, simple elements, which he gradually expands. It often begins straightforwardly, with a little motif that could be devised by any composer, but soon becomes unmistakably Bach. ’French’ Suite no. 4, performed here by Pierre Hantaï for All of Bach, is a good example of this.
