Sonatas for Viola da Gamba and Harpsichord

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Petr Hejný & Giedrė Lukšaitė-Mrázková

Sonatas for Viola da Gamba and Harpsichord is a set of three sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They use the timbral contrast of viol and harpsichord, move between fugal counterpoint and lyrical passages, and are part of Bach's middle-period chamber output for bowed and keyboard instruments.
