About

The six Sonatas for violin and harpsichord obbligato rank amongst the most beautiful chamber music composed by Bach; however, they are overshadowed by the solo sonatas.

They are performed beautifully here by Daniel Gaede and Raphael Alpermann. The slow movements display a range of moods, from desolate and lonely to radiantly festive. Meanwhile, the fast movements are a mixture of high-spirited instrumental music and contrapuntal mastery.

There are canons, fugues, chorale preludes and much more: practically a compendium of options. Daniel Gaede and Raphael Alpermann guide us through this treasure trove of curiosities with virtuosity and sensitivity.

Once again: 2 CDs for the price of one.
