The Cello Suites were introduced to the wider public by Casals when he recorded this set. Suites 2 and 3 were recorded at Abbey Road Studios in 1936, the others in Paris from 1938–9. The set has remained in the EMI catalogue throughout the world ever since, being remastered for vinyl in 1957, and subsequently for CD many times.
