This is the last of the set of three sonatas and three partitas which Bach completed in 1720 when he was employed in Cöthen.
Christopher Nupen about the performance:
“A memorable performance of the Bach partita shot live at a public concert in London which helped us to learn that there is almost always a depth to live performance on film that is frequently missing from studio performances.”
