It only takes one violin to make a whole world resound. There is no doubt that Johann Sebastian Bach's three sonatas and three partitas are among the most beautiful and noble works ever composed for solo violin. The violinist Augustin Hadelich, celebrated for his ravishing tone, selects the second (with the famous Chaconne) and third partitas and, with the poignant "Ballade" in D minor by Eugène Ysaÿe, places an equal work alongside the premier class of the solo violin repertoire. It comes from the famous sonata cycle op. 27, with which the great Belgian violinist and composer paid homage to his role model Bach. With the jazz- and blues-inspired music of Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson and the "mystery sonatas" by David Lang, Hadelich creates an arc to modern violin literature.
