Sonatas & Partitas: BWV 1004-1006

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Isabelle Faust

Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin, BWV 1004-1006, are a set of three works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1720. They blend intricate polyphonic writing, stylised dance movements and virtuosic technical demands within the Baroque solo violin repertory, reflecting Bach's mature exploration of contrapuntal techniques and the expansion of the instrument's expressive possibilities.
