Six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Benjamin Schmid & Anthony Spiri

Six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord is a set of six sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed c. 1720–1723. They exemplify Bach's Baroque chamber writing with an obbligato harpsichord part that shares thematic material with the violin and intricate contrapuntal and fugal textures, occupying a central place in his chamber-music output from the Köthen/Leipzig period.
