After more than 30 years of intensive interest in J.S. Bach�s original works for violin, it was high time for Benjamin Schmid to improvise on Bach. He has done this with three movements from the Partita in E major BWV 1006, which F. Kreisler already arranged for his own purposes. An improvised solo part on Bach�s C-sharp Adagio can be found, as can Schmid�s own composition following Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber or the Andante in C major BWV 1003. But there are also polytonal expansions on the Prelude in C major, then ending in the jazz standard All the things you are, which goes through almost all the keys.
