This album features Timo Korhonen with the Partitas for Solo Violin by J.S. Bach, and his own arrangement for modern guitar. This recording follows on the success of the Bach Sonatas for Solo Violin (OD 1128).

While many guitarists carry single movements in their repertoire, such as the famous Ciaccona from Partita No. 2, Timo Korhonen’s acclaimed project herewith covers the complete Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin. Timo Korhonen’s transcriptions remain very faithful to the original violin score, as he states in the liner notes: "My aim was to execute the musical content, as if Bach had actually written it for six-string guitar back in 1720."

Timo Korhonen is a real insiders’ tip with a loyal fan base at major festivals and concert venues around the globe. His imaginative and innovative performances of contemporary and less known works continue to create much excitement. Concerto appearances feature him along with conductors such as Esa-Pekka Salonen, Jukka-Pekka Saraste and Sakari Oramo. His acclaimed recordings for Ondine include Leo Brouwer’s ’Helsinki Concerto,’ dedicated to him by the composer, which won a Cannes Classical Award in 2003 (OD 979)
