Overview

Johann Sebastian Bach’s Six Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin stand at the summit of the instrument’s repertoire, posing profound technical, intellectual and spiritual challenges to the performer. Christian Tetzlaff, renowned for his highly expressive singing style of playing, marks his recent 60th birthday and celebrates Wigmore Hall’s 125th by offering a rare chance to hear the works in their entirety.
