Sheet music for violin
| Info: | This piece is the third and final movement of the Sonata in G minor for Violin or Flute and keyboard (BWV 1020). This last movement is marked “Allegro” just like the first movement, but it is usually played a little bit faster. It is characterized by a rather peculiar repeated-note motif. This sonata is also attributed to Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (H.542.5). |

| The artist: | One of the greatest composers of all time. Bach wrote hundreds of pieces for organ, choir, as well as many other instruments. He spent most of his life as a church organist and a choir director. His music combines profound expression with clever musico-mathematical feats, like fugues and cannons in which the same melody is played against itself in various ways. |
