Bach - Flute sonata in A major BWV 1032 - Root and Van Delft | Netherlands Bach Society
Bach’s Flute Sonata in A major, performed by Marten Root and Menno van Delft for All of Bach, has a complicated past. Bach notated the work himself on a series of remaining empty staves at the bottom of pages of a piece of music he had written earlier. Later on, pages were lost from the manuscript, along with many bars from the first movement. So here, too, reconstruction was necessary. The sonata as a whole was probably also a ‘reconstruction’ of an earlier work. Notes made on the manuscript suggest that it was preceded by another version – probably a ‘real’ trio sonata for recorder, violin and basso continuo.
