Piano accompaniment backing tracks
It is thought that J.S. Bach composed his three viola da gamba sonatas in the late 1730s and early 1740s. They can be played either on viola or cello. The third sonata resembles a small-scale concerto in that it is in just three movements, and it brings to mind the famous Brandenburg Concerto No.3. Bach shows his mastery of instrumental writing throughout, with rich melodies which are skilfully developed.
