Bach: Sonatas & Partitas

In conjunction with his fiftieth birthday, French violinist Renaud Capuçon presents his interpretations of J. S. Bach's sonatas and partitas, often considered the most significant pieces for solo violin. With this recording, Capuçon shares an interpretation that stems from his lifelong devotion to Bach's music. The result is a unique rendition of all six masterpieces, shaped by a very personal path he has been following since his childhood.
