Fugues, Sonatas and Partitas
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, January 6, 2019 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
In 1720, Bach completed a set of sonatas and partitas for solo violin. Although these works were largely ignored until the middle of the 19th century, they have become an essential part of the violin repertoire in modern times.
One of the leading exponents of Baroque era violin performance, Giuliano Carmignola, has recently released a recording of these monumental works. On this week’s program, we’ll focus on the fugues from the sonatas, a genre that has had no greater master than Bach.
