This recording is the second volume devoted to Bach's Sonatas and Partitas for unaccompanied violin,
performed by Hélène Schmitt. It is one of the rare versions played on a Baroque violin (gut strings, curved bow...).
These are archetypal works for solo violin, combining spirituality and virtuosity. Taking up a difficult challenge,
Bach succeeds most admirably in obtaining polyphony from a monodic instrument.Hélène Schmitt, violon
Violon de Camillo Camilli (tout début du XVIII e siècle)
(Music Selected by Dimitris Pappas)
