For someone who doesn't go to college for the clarinet/bass clarinet, but wants to learn to play classical music quite well; how many of the Bach Cello Suites should you learn? One or two, or maybe all of them? I'd like to be able to play the Marc Eychenne Sonata on my bass someday, but I understand you have to be extremely skilled to play that... speaking of which I seem to only be able to get 90min. a day about 3-4x a week... Still making progress in the right direction of course, but I use to have the time to get 3 hours in every day guranteed. I hate being an adult with obligations... Thanks for reading.

Why limit yourself. There's no rule, no "should." Start with 1, then once you've learned it, if you like playing it, start with the next. Pursue something else when (if) you get tired of Bach.

Read through all of them, and feel that 1, 2 and 5 work best for me for long-term practice. First movement of 5 is sort of like the Everest. Pull it off and you can nod sagely and talk about "Zee Bach" like Pablo Casals.
