Sonatas & Partitas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Esther Hoppe

Sonatas and Partitas is a set of six works for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They are Baroque works that combine polyphonic writing with dance-derived movements and extended technical writing for solo violin, and they form an important part of Bach's early 18th century output for solo instruments.
