Details
The young violinist Sara Cubarsi, winner of El Primer Palau in 2013, returns to the Palau with one of the pinnacles of Bach's repertoire for her instrument: the Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin. Composed in 1702 for an unknown performer, this set of works, to which some scholars have wished to grant a formal and meaningful unity, are part of the universal canon and are often performed by the best violinists in the world to demonstrate their interpretative abilities.
