The Six Partitas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Angela Hewitt

The Six Partitas are a collection of six keyboard partitas by Johann Sebastian Bach, published in 1731. They exemplify Baroque keyboard writing through dance-derived movements, contrapuntal textures and elaborate ornamentation, and were issued as Bach's contribution to his Clavier-Übung series during his middle career, reflecting his development in keyboard composition.
