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.
