Shunske Sato plays Bach’s lively E Major Partita for the Netherlands Bach Society. 

Bach’s Violin Partita No. 1 didn’t interest me as much as the others when I first heard it. I much preferred Partita No. 2 and Violin Sonata No. 1. On subsequent listens, I my mind completely changed. Bach’s writing in the key of B Minor has a special significance, and it sounds magnificent on the violin. BWV 1002 is played here by Shunske Sato for the Netherlands Bach Society.  

12 Concerti Grossi from Baroque Violin master, Arcangelo Corelli (1653- 1713).
