Partita No 2 in D minor for solo violin, BWV 1004

Experience Classical

Available for over a year

All the movements are worthy of equal listening but the final chaconne of this Partita has a greatness of its own. It is as if Bach, a deeply religious man, wrote this Partita to convey his conversations with God. Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach Performer: Tai Murray (Violin) Recording date: 19 May 2009 Date of broadcast: 27 January 2010
