Bach private
We are in Bach's private apartment. Today, the still young composer is welcoming special guests. The violinists Johann Joseph Vilsmayr and Johann Paul Westhoff, famous throughout Europe, have already tuned their fine violins and begin to present a few samples from their sonata collections for unaccompanied violin. Bach's friend Telemann has also joined them. He plays one of his popular fantasies. After a delicious meal and a glass of fine red wine - Bach always had a good drop in stock - Johann Sebastian presents a draft of his »Sei Solo a Violino senza Basso accompagnato«. The two virtuosos Vilsmayr and Westhoff, as well as Georg Philipp, are amazed at the mastery of their host.
