Bach's six Partitas for unaccompanied violin are among the very greatest and most demanding solo works in any violinist's repertoire. BBC2's Sunday night music series continues with a filmed public performance of Partita No 6 in E major, given by Itzhak Perlman. It was recorded at one of BBC Radio 3's weekly lunchtime concerts in St John 's, Smith Square, London - built in the same decade in which Bach's music was written. Introduced for the radio audience by PATRICIA HUGHES
