Book Synopsis Sei Solo: Symbolum? by : Benjamin Jeffery Shute
One of the jewels in the crown of Johann Sebastian Bach's sacred music is its use of astonishingly subtle and complex allegorical and representational devices. But when similar devices appear in the context of one of Bach's untexted, secular, instrumental collections such as the Six Solos (sonatas and partitas) for violin, the question arises whether he might be intending to embed discernible theological significances there as well, thus infusing the secular with the sacred. Such designs would be reasonably plausible within Bach's musical, cultural, and religious context. Shute carefully investigates the extent to which musical features of the Six Solos that seem to invite theological parallels might indeed have been intended to do so. Although the precise extent of Bach's intentions cannot be ascertained with certainty, the degree of correlation among strong potential signifiers would seem to suggest that they, and many other features of the Six Solos, are best explained as the product of extensive theological-allegorical designs on Bach's part, like those evident in his texted vocal music.

Composed between 1714 and 1720 but not published until 1802, Bach's Sonatas and Partitas are an essential part of the violin repertoire, and they are frequently performed and recorded. The pieces often served as archetypes for solo violin pieces by later generations of composers.

Book Synopsis Bach's Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin Arranged for Mandolin by : ANDREW DRISCOLL
This book contains the first three of J.S. Bach's solo violin Sonatas and Partitas arranged for mandolin. The goal of the material is to make learning these challenging pieces easier. Mandolin tablature is included throughout the book. Mandolinists who have little or no experience reading standard notation will find this to be an essential learning tool. For good reason, there has been widespread interest in learning these pieces in the mandolin community. The pieces were originally written for violin. As a result, Bach's use of string crossing patterns and open-string pedals work brilliantly on the mandolin. Also, as solo works they are a useful addition to anyone's performing repertoire. Lastly, even if never performed, learning all or some of these is wonderful for building mandolin technique. Violinists often say that if you can play the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas you can play anything-the same is certainly true for mandolinists

Book Synopsis A Musicology of Performance by : Dorottya Fabian
This book examines the nature of musical performance. In it, Dorottya Fabian explores the contributions and limitations of some of these approaches to performance, be they theoretical, cultural, historical, perceptual, or analytical. Through a detailed investigation of recent recordings of J. S. Bach’s Six Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, she demonstrates that music performance functions as a complex dynamical system. Only by crossing disciplinary boundaries, therefore, can we put the aural experience into words. A Musicology of Performance provides a model for such a method by adopting Deleuzian concepts and various empirical and interdisciplinary procedures. Fabian provides a case study in the repertoire, while presenting new insights into the state of baroque performance practice at the turn of the twenty-first century. Through its wealth of audio examples, tables, and graphs, the book offers both a sensory and a scholarly account of musical performance. These interactive elements map the connections between historically informed and mainstream performance styles, considering them in relation to broader cultural trends, violin schools, and individual artistic trajectories. A Musicology of Performance is a must read for academics and post-graduate students and an essential reference point for the study of music performance, the early music movement, and Bach’s opus.

Book Synopsis 6 Sonatas and Partitas by : Johann Sebastian Bach
It is one of Josef Joachim’s great merits, not only to have introduced the following sonatas of Johann Sebastian Bach into the Concert-Hall, but also to have made them loved by the great public. They were almost unknown before Joachim played them with his grand art of interpretation, and brought out all the beauties of this magnificent music. Some parts of these sonatas had been played in public by certain violinists before Joachim’s time, but as the spirit and the technique of these works were quite strange to the performers, the interpretation made a ridiculous impression on the audience. Any success was made quite impossible on account of the want of knowledge in the performers. Then came Joachim and his rendering was a revelation. How be played, and interpreted these sonatas is so well-known, that it is not necessary to mention it. When I completed my studies at the Berliner Hochschule under Joachim’s direction, the study of these sonatas formed one of the most important parts of his teaching. Joachim used the very excellent edition by Ferdinand David, based on Bach’s manuscript, to be found in the Royal Library in Berlin. All the same Joachim changed a great deal in this edition, with regard to the manner of playing, bowing, fingering and marks of interpretation, and I kept to all the alterations made by him. I very often had the opportunity of hearing Joachim play these works at concerts as well as during his classes, and so I was able to observe the fineness of his interpretation down to the smallest detail. As I am publishing the standard works of violin literature in connection with my own teaching, it was a special pleasure to me to revise these Sonatas — which I consider one of the most important works written for the violin — in such a manner, that no doubt may be left as to the best and easiest way of mastering the great and unusual difficulties which they contain. I hope to show by this to all young violin-artists, to whom the study of the following sonatas cannot be too strongly recommended — a sure way to a really perfect and beautiful rendering of the same.

Book Synopsis Six Sonatas and Partitas for Violin Solo by : Johann Sebastian Bach
The work for Solo Violin BWV 1001-1006 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) originally titled (Sei Solo - a violino senza basso accompagnato), was published long after his death in 1802 by Nikolaus Simrock in Bonn (Germany), however, fortunately the sources that are preserved today are those of the autograph manuscript itself and in good condition. Even though the work is well written, there are texts and annotations in which it is uncertain to know exactly where they begin or end. Though, to clarify this, other handwritten copies have been used, but when deriving directly or indirectly from the original autograph, the comparison is not relevant to correct errors and discrepancies. This version tries to transmit in a close or faithful way the intention of the composer for the benefit of the performer, since The Six Sonatas and Partitas reflect Bach's ability as a performer and composer. Only someone involved with the violin as a performer could know its possibilities and limitations so well, they demonstrate a level of technical and musical mastery that previous composers had not approached and they remain one of the peaks of violin literature. Musical spelling errors and rhythmic inaccuracies have been corrected, also, some annotations or solutions in brackets have been added, considered by the editor.La obra para Violín Solo BWV 1001-1006 de Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) titulada originalmente (Sei Solo - a violino senza basso accompagnato), fue publicada mucho después de su muerte en 1802 por Nikolaus Simrock en Bonn (Alemania), sin embargo, por fortuna las fuentes que se conservan en la actualidad son las del propio manuscrito autógrafo y en buen estado, se encuentra archivada en la Biblioteca Estatal de Berlín (Mus. Sra. Bach P 967). A pesar que la obra está bien escrita, existen textos y anotaciones en que es incierto saber con exactitud dónde comienzan o terminan. No obstante, para esclarecer esto, se han recurrido a otras copias manuscritas, pero al derivar directa o indirectamente del autógrafo original carece de relevancia la comparación para corregir errores y discrepancias. Esta versión trata de transmitir de manera cercana o fiel la intención del compositor para beneficio del ejecutante, pues Las Seis Sonatas y Partitas reflejan la habilidad de Bach como intérprete y compositor. Sólo alguien involucrado con el violín como intérprete podría conocer tan bien sus posibilidades y limitaciones, demuestran un nivel de maestría técnica y musical al que no se habían acercado los compositores anteriores y, de hecho, siguen siendo una de las cumbres de la literatura del violín. Se han corregido errores ortográficos musicales e inexactitudes rítmicas, además, se agregaron algunas anotaciones o soluciones entre corchetes consideradas por el editor.
