Bach: Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Pavel Šporcl

The Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin are a set of six works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. Written in the Baroque style, they combine dance movements and complex contrapuntal writing to create technically demanding, polyphonic pieces that occupy a central place in the solo violin repertoire and reflect Bach's compositional activity during his Cöthen period.
