About this product
The InchSei Suonate à Cembalo certato è Violino SoloInch, as Bach's six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord (BWV 1014-1019) are entitled in the oldest surviving fair copy, are undoubtedly among those works which have set new standards in chamber music. They have long established themselves on the world's concert platforms, and yet they still raise questions. There is no certainty about when or where the sonatas were written. Did Bach compose them when he moved to Leipzig? And did he deliberately plan them as a set of six? We cannot tell. Accordingly, Bach's Violin Sonatas BWV 1014-1019 are not only unbelievably varied, they amount to a veritable treasure-chamber of musical forms and moods. Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel perceptively remarked in 1774 that the Sonatas sounded Inchvery good even now, even though they are over 50 years oldInch, and in addition contained Inchsome Adagii, which one could not set more songfully at the present dayInch. That Inchpresent dayInch was the world in which Emanuel Bach lived and worked, the world of the Enlightenment, the galant style and the InchsentimentInch of Empfindsamkeit. From such a perspective, as works in which the primacy of melody is constantly evident despite the narrow limits imposed by the writing for trio, the Violin Sonatas may be perceived as a bridge into our own times.

![Viviane Chassot - Moser: Rahel und Pauline - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/d51293b9-dae4-4c13-95b0-50d42eccd252.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
German Romanticism was never an arcane hideout for other-worldly escapists; rather, it has to this day remained one of the most popular wellsprings of activity and discussion. So how does Rahel Varnhagen fit into this? From 1790 to 1832, she hosted a famous salon in which she had discussions with and inspired eminent figures in the fields of literature, theater, philosophy, music, politics, and science. Her chains of somewhat unconventional correspondence span thousands of pages. Since Hannah Arendt's groundbreaking book on Rahel (1933/58), her historical significance as a InchpariahInch, as an outsider who was constantly in the spotlight, as a woman of Jewish descent and as a (non-publishing) writer has been brought into ever-sharper focus. Pauline, the daughter of a banker by the name of César, was from a very early age admired by many on account of her beauty. She bore the child of a Russian officer, and became the lover of Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia. Portrayed here by a concert singer, Pauline is allowed to be extravagant, whereas Rahel, who leans more towards straight theatre, is rather more rigid in her spoken and sung idiom. Born in 1943 in Bern (Switzerland), Roland Moser studied composition with Sándor Veress and has degrees in piano and music theory from Bern.

... but if I am allowed only one musical work on my desert island, then I should choose Koroliov's Bach, because forsaken, starving and dying of thirst, I would listen to it right up to my last breath. (Gyorgy Ligeti)
