Where is cello most famous in?

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.
