Schwarz/Shin Duo: Treasures of the High Baroque: Two Bach Sonatas for Violin & Harpsichord

The six sonatas for violin and obbligato harpsichord (BWV 1014–1019) represent some of Bach's most eloquent and ingenious contrapuntal writing, where harpsichord & violin form a fully integrated trio texture. In the Sonata a Violino solo e Basso per il Cembalo, BWV 1024 the harpsichord takes the usual role of continuo accompaniment. It is now believed to be by Johann Georg Pisendel.
