Violin Sonatas & Partitas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Uto Ughi

Violin Sonatas & Partitas is a collection of six works for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. These Baroque works combine intricate contrapuntal writing, dance-derived movements and virtuosic technical demands, and they occupy a central place in Bach's output for solo instruments and in the solo violin repertoire.
First released: 1991
