not many surprisingly, he only wrote the 6 brandenburg concertos, and the 4 orchestral suites
Johann Sebastian Bach wrote immense amounts of music, for organ, for solo clavier (a forerunner of the piano), for solo violin, solo cello, solo flute, for different ensembles of instruments, for solo voice, and for chorus with instrumental accompaniments. In short, he wrote for every instrument in existence at his time.
Many differeing "pieces" that can be performed with the cello. Most famous are the cello concertos (traditionally solo cello with orchestra). Some famous concertos are those composed by Schumann, Elgar, Lalo, Hadyn, Dvorak, Shostakovich. There are also numerous sonatas as well: ex: Debussy. There are some other pieces such as Paganini's Variations on One String, Fantasy Pieces, etc. You cannot forget the most famous for solo cello: the Bach Suites.
The cello was included in the orchestras which played in The Lord of the Rings soundtrack, but the cello never played any songs solo.

This answer is subjective based on opinion. My favorite cello piece (which I have heard used for TV and Movies) is Nulla in Mundo Pax Sincera by Vivaldi. (This piece is written for Voice, cello and harpsichord) My first "audition" piece is also widely recognizable. It came from the third Back cello suite. The Bach cello suites are solo pieces that may be familar to some audiences.

The Six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello by Johann Sebastian Bach are some of the most performed and recognizable solo compositions ever written for cello. This were the most famous. Vivaldi wrote several concertos for cello and orchestra. But for some reason it seems that not too many concertos featuring this instrument were written by famous composers. Haydn wrote several (but only two have survived), Dvorak wrote one, as did Elgar, and Shostakovich wrote two. Both Beethoven and Brahms wrote sonatas for cello and piano.
