Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Hlíf Sigurjónsdóttir

Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin is a set of six works by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They are written for unaccompanied violin and combine polyphonic counterpoint with movements derived from Baroque dance forms and passages of extended technical demand, and they are central to the solo violin repertoire and to Bach's body of work for solo instruments.
