Sonaten und Partiten

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Itzhak Perlman

Sonaten und Partiten is a set of six works for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1720. Written in the Baroque idiom, the collection alternates contrapuntal sonatas and dance-form partitas, combining polyphonic writing, virtuosic passagework and varied affect to expand the technical and expressive scope of the solo violin and to occupy a significant place in the instrument's repertoire.
