Sonatas & Partitas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Fabio Biondi

Sonatas and Partitas is a set of six solo violin works by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They are Baroque works that use polyphonic and fugal writing alongside movements derived from dance forms for unaccompanied violin, and they are central to the solo violin repertoire and to Bach's instrumental output.
