Viktoria Mullova renews her partnership with long-term collaborator Ottavio Dantone in a programme of concertos for violin, offering not only the two famous concertos, but two concertos arranged for violin from the 2nd harpsichord concerto, and a concerto for violin and harpsichord which listeners may recognise from its violin and oboe guise – even this was arranged by Bach himself from the original for two harpsichords. Bach himself was a great re-user of material, and many concerto movements (including some from lost concertos) appeared in his cantatas. Mullova and Dantone have worked together for many years, both recording and in concert. They wanted to find a piece they could both play with orchestra, and BWV1060 in this brilliant arrangement is the result – the overall composition is enriched by a range of new nuances.

Viktoria Mullova’s Bach recordings for ONYX have been widely acclaimed worldwide, and of her recording of the 'Partitas and Sonatas' for solo violin, the Sunday Times said ‘they exemplify the best of old and new stylistic approaches to Bach’s masterpieces’, selecting the recording as their Classical CD of the week.
