Sonatas for Violin & Harpsichord

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Isabelle Faust & Kristian Bezuidenhout

Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord is a set of six sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. They are Baroque chamber works that combine intricate counterpoint with a continuo texture in which the harpsichord has an independent harmonic and melodic role, and they sit within Bach's early 18th-century output for solo instruments.
