Die Sonaten für Viola da gamba und Cembalo

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Jordi Savall & Ton Koopman

Die Sonaten für Viola da gamba und Cembalo is a set of three sonatas for viola da gamba and harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1740. The works combine Baroque counterpoint with intimate chamber textures, pairing lyrical melodic writing for the gamba with intricate harpsichord accompaniment and occupying a late-period place in Bach's instrumental output that reflects his engagement with chamber genres and instrumental colour.
