Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, Volume 1

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Lucy van Dael

Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, Volume 1 is a collection of solo violin works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. Written in the Baroque idiom for unaccompanied violin, the pieces combine intricate contrapuntal writing, dance-derived movements and demanding virtuosic passagework, and they mark a key point in Bach's instrumental output and the solo violin repertoire.
