While this flute sonata in G minor, BWV 1020 is usually attributed to JS Bach, there is evidence to suggest his son CPE Bach may have written it instead. Regardless of its author, the sonata is extremely well written and often used as an audition or exam piece. The Allegro has a long introduction on harpsichord (piano) before the flute enters, the Adagio is song-like and the finale is robust and energetic.
