Bach - Violin sonata in F major BWV 1022 - Sato and Ares | Netherlands Bach Society

This Violin sonata in F major, BWV 1022, is on a manuscript dating from around 1800, but it is not certain whether Bach wrote this piece. It is an almost literal reduction of the Trio Sonata for flute, violin and continuo, BWV 1038, with the original bass and the violin part intact. The flute part has moved to the right hand of the harpsichord and gained a profusion of ornaments. There is even a bit of new music, in galant style with the harpsichord in the main role, as the Vivace has been expanded by several bars into a section with repetition. The sonata is a tone lower than the original, as the highest note of the flute was not yet on the keyboard of the harpsichord. Recorded for the project All of Bach on 4 November 2020 at Studio 150 - former Bethlehemchurch - in Amsterdam.
