The six sonatas for violin and obbligato harpsichord (BWV 1014–1019) represent some of Bach's most eloquent and ingenious contrapuntal writing, where harpsichord and violin form a fully integrated trio texture. In the Sonata Violino solo col Basso in E minor (BWV 1023) the harpsichord takes the usual role of continuo accompaniment. Bach’s authorship of this second selection is still somewhat doubtful.
