Summary of This Score
"Sonata BWV 1014" is part of the group of six sonatas BWV 1014-1019, composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, probably during the Köthen period. These works stand out for their conception: they are primarily designed for obbligato harpsichord, supported by a melodic instrument. The result is rich chamber music, where the keyboard part is not a mere accompaniment but a true partner, carrying the harmonic material and part of the thematic discourse.
In this edition, Clémence Grégoire offers an adaptation for alto recorder and harpsichord. The transcription is made to best fit the constraints and strengths of the recorder: range, fingerings, articulation, and breathing. This version thus allows approaching a major work of the Bach repertoire with an instrument very present in Baroque practice, while preserving the spirit of the sonata and the subtlety of the dialogue between the two voices.
