6 Sonatas for harpsichord and violin BWV 1014–1019

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Catherine Manson & Ton Koopman

Six Sonatas for Harpsichord and Violin, BWV 1014–1019, are a set of six sonatas by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They exemplify Baroque chamber music, featuring an obbligato harpsichord part that engages in contrapuntal dialogue with the violin across multi-movement forms combining fugal writing and dance-derived movements, and they occupy an important place in Bach's chamber output for advancing the violin–keyboard sonata as an integrated duo.
