Bach:
Sonate G-Dur BWV 1027
Sonate D-Dur BWV 1028
Sonate g-Moll BWV 1029

Johann Sebastian Bach's three "Gamba Sonatas" (BWV 1027-1029) may be among his best-known works, but in contrast to their popularity, we know litlle concrete information about their composition and possible dedications. A version for three string instruments could appear somewhat unorthodox at first glance, but may in fact be a litlle closer to its presumed origin. And although the string trio led by cellist Johannes König plays on modern instruments, its interpretation is inspired by insights from historical performance practice. With its version of the "Gamba Sonatas", the ensemble wishes to contribute to a historically informed, yet undogmatic and diverse performance that emulates Bach‘s own joy in experimentation.
