Piano accompaniment backing tracks
Bach's 6th violin sonata is a work that he kept coming back to in order to refine and perfect, included here is the third and final revision of the work. Unusually, the first movement to this sonata is a quick Allegro, with a toccata-like theme which gives the soloist little time to pause, before the keyboard takes over the semiquaver passagework. The second movement is very brief, while the third movement is in fact a harpsichord solo without any violin part, therefore it is not included here. The fourth movement serves to modulate from E minor back to G major for the energetic and joyous fifth movement.
