At 4pm, Sandy Burnett takes the G minor sonata BWV 1001 by JS Bach as his subject for this week’s Great Moments in Classical Music.
In the year 1720, Johann Sebastian Bach wrote a collection of six works for solo violin which have since been recognised as one of the greatest achievements of their kind. Sandy Burnett takes one of them – the G minor sonata BWV 1001 – as his subject for this week’s Great Moments in Classical Music.
