Bach: Violin Partita No.3 in E major, BWV 1006 Loure｜Eimi Wakui
Johann Sebastian Bach’s (1685-1750) Partita No. 3 for Solo Violin, BWV 1006, composed in 1720 along with five other sonatas and partitas for solo violin, is widely regarded as one of the greatest works of Baroque music. This work, the third of the partitas, consists of six movements: Preludio, Loure, Gavotte en Rondeau, minuet I and II, bourrée, and gigue, each of which has a different character, yet the work as a whole has a sense of unity. The “Roulé” is known for its graceful rhythms and melody, and stands out among the dances Bach wrote for violin.
Personally, it is one of my favorite pieces to listen to at the end of the summer. Please enjoy.
This time, we had the opportunity to shoot at a private residence of a traditional Japanese house in a beautiful scattered village on the Tonami Plain. Surrounded by a large forest of houses called “Cainyo”, the house, built using the ”Azumadachi” method of construction, has a very splendid and dignified appearance. The black “Kawara” tile roof, white walls, and large gable ends are impressive, and the thick beams inside are painted with glossy ”Urushi” lacquer, which contrasts beautifully with the white walls. The spacious “Guest Room”, with its traditional yet modern flavor, made a fine performance venue!
