Jsut curious; I'm hearing this short classical piece. Don't know who did it, but here's what I can describe

It's for solo cello - sounds like Baroque or maybe Early classical

It's used in about every 3rd commercial on TV

It' follows sort of a modified Alberti Bass, but obviously with modifications.

If I could whistle with text, I would...;)

any ideas?

Bach's cello suite No.1 in G Major. I first heard it in the second season of West Wing, episode name "Noel" I believe.
