Netherlands Bach Society | Bach - Violin Concerto in D minor BWV 1052R - Sato | Netherlands Bach Society @bach | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
When it was composed, this violin marvel – the Violin Concerto in D minor, performed here by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach – immediately became such a technical challenge that few soloists were able to tackle it. Too few, probably, as not a shred of it has survived. The concerto played here is a modern reconstruction, based on a harpsichord concerto written much later by Bach, but which is presumed to originate from a violin concerto.

Recorded for the project All of Bach on December 6 2019 at Stadsgehoorzaal Leiden, the Netherlands. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/3J5uprM.
