The Making of a Masterpiece
The Challenge of the Solo: The Baroque Violin by Professor Christopher Hogwood. Pavlo Beznosiuk, one of the world's leading baroque violinists, explains and demonstrates the challenge of music for solo violin; works by Nicola Matteis and Heinrich Biber lead to a discussion and performance of the famous Chaconne from Bach's Solo Partita in D minor. Can such a work be satisfactorily analysed or does "music begin where words leave off"? (from gresham.ac.uk)
