Sonatas Wq 71-74 BWV 1036 Violinsonaten nach den Trios Wq 143-147-Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's works for Violin and Harpsichord obbligato pervade his entire compositional oeuvre. The earliest works like the Sonata in D minor still numbered BWV 1036 date back to the years of study with his father yet show already a remarkable creative will of his own. The latest work the fantasia 'C. P. E. Bachs Empfindungen' in F flat minor of 1787 is characterized by the composer's highly expressive late style. The new two-volume edition of Wiener Urtext Edition contains C. P. E. Bach's complete works for Harpsichord (Piano) obbligato and Violin. Vol. 1 contains not only the sonatas Wq 71–74 and BWV 1036 but alsothe arrangements of the trios Wq 143–145 for Violin and Harpsichord most of which are included in C. P. E. Bach's autographs as well as a – previously ignored – early version of Wq 71 which like BWV 1036 grants a rare insight into the early works of the composer. Vol. 2 contains the four major sonatas of 1763 which already fascinated Johannes Brahms. Brahms not only played them in concert together with Joseph Hellmesberger but also published two of these sonatas in 1864. This volume concludes with the two late works 'Arioso' and 'Fantasie' of 1781 and 1787 respectively. With these works C. P. E. Bach bridged the gap between the late Baroque sonatas of his father and the early classical 'Klaviersonate mit begleitender Violine' [Piano Sonata with Accompanying Violin].

Composed in Berlin in 1747 Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's Trio Sonata In A Minor Wq.148 is a superb work for chamber group. For Flute Violin (or Oboe) and Continuo - Piano (or Cembalo) with Cello (or Bassoon) - this work is ideal for recital or concert performance.Available here is the score with Flute Violin (or Oboe) and Cello (or Bassoon) parts.

L?attribution de ces trois sonates parvenues séparément à la postérité est quelque peu sujette à caution. En effet la sonate en sol mineur BWV 1020 est peut-être du fils Carl Philipp Emanuel. Par ailleurs bien que les sources la destinent au violon elle est aujourd?hui interprétée principalement à la flûte. Il est notable que la mélodie ne descend jamais plus bas que le ré1 ce qui permettrait de penser qu?il pourrait s?agir de l?adaptation pour flûte d?une sonate pour violon. Les deux autres sonates se situent elles aussi en terrain mouvant au regard des sources. Cependant la facture mélodique de leurs beaux mouvements lents est telle qu?on la trouve souvent chez J. S. Bach.Ainsi en l?absence de preuves tangibles de la paternité d?autres compositeurs l?attribution à Bach père reste-t-elle d?actualité.
