Bach - Sonata No. 1 in G minor for Solo Violin, BWV 1001 (PDF Sheet Music / Digital Download)

Composed during his time in Köthen, J.S. Bach's Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BWV 1001, is the magnificent opening statement in a collection that redefined the capabilities of the solo violin. Alongside the Partitas, these works established the instrument not merely as a melodic voice, but as a vehicle for profound polyphony and complex harmonic structures. The G minor Sonata follows the traditional four-movement structure of the sonata da chiesa (church sonata): slow-fast-slow-fast, offering a deep journey into Baroque mastery and emotional depth.
