Sonatas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Manuel Barrueco

Sonatas is a collection of instrumental sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in the early 1720s. Rooted in the Baroque idiom, the works display intricate counterpoint, virtuosic solo writing and a blend of expressive melodies with dense harmonic textures, and they occupy a central place in Bach's chamber and solo repertoire as key examples of Baroque instrumental music.
First released: 1997
