Kusser, Johann Sigismund: 6 Orchester Suiten, Band II (Suite IV - VI)

Composition de musique was published in Stuttgart immediately after Kusser had completed his six years of study with J.-B. Lully in Paris. The work thus numbers among the earliest German publications of overtures (suites) in the style “suivant la méthode françoise.”

All the Suites are composed in six parts, whereby the upper two Dessus parts, with the exception of several airs “à 2 Dessus,” almost always remain in unison.
