Inspired by Bach, a Sony Classical and Rhombus Media production as part of Sony Classical celebrates Bach series, presents contemporary cellist Yo-Yo Ma performing the six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello by Johann Sebastian Bach in collaboration with artists from different disciplines, in a set of six films, respectively.

The Inspired by Bach films are available on three DVDs, each of which contain various bonus materials.

Volume 2. Falling Down Stairs, directed by Barbara Willis Sweete, shows the cooperation between Ma and American contemporary dance choreographer Mark Morris and his Dance Group. Morris had never thought to choreograph a dance to a Bach suite (here the 3rd) and his goal was to inspire Ma as a musician with his choreography so the latter could profit musically from the cooperation. Sarabande is a drama movie by Atom Egoyan featuring Yo-Yo Ma, Egoyan's wife Arsinée Khanjian and Fame star Lori Singer.
