Description:
This sonata was originally written in E Major for the flauto traverso (BWV 1035). In transposed form, it proves to be perfect for the treble (alto) recorder, even seeming to have been written for that instrument. At last you can play one of Bach’s very great works on the recorder without cutting corners. Manfredo Zimmermann, professor of recorder at the Wuppertal Musikhochschule and a specialist in early music, has edited and recorded the sonata for this edition. The demo recordings, as well as the 3 tempi play-along tracks, are available online in MP3 format.
