Six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord / Two Sonatas for Violin and Basso Continuo

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Sonya Monosoff & James Weaver & Judith Davidoff

Six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord / Two Sonatas for Violin and Basso Continuo is a collection of sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They are Baroque chamber pieces that combine virtuosic violin lines with elaborate harpsichord or continuo accompaniment, and they show Bach in a phase when he used denser counterpoint and richer harmonic language in his chamber music.
