Sei Solo: Sonatas & Partitas for Violin

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Christine Busch

Sei Solo: Sonatas & Partitas for Violin is a set of six solo violin works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. The music exemplifies Baroque solo violin repertoire, combining intricate contrapuntal writing and dance-derived movements with demanding virtuosity and expressive range, and it occupies a central place in Bach's output for unaccompanied string instruments and in the wider violin literature.
