Did Biber,Bach and Liszt overstep the bounds
of artistic possibility in their times?

The program idea is based on the question: Did Johann Sebastian Bach as well as Franz Liszt overstepped the bounds of artistic possibility in there times? In the works of JS Bach, baroque music reached its peak. Bach was also engaged in exploring, and infinitely expanding, the range of works for solo violin. In his Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, Bach also pushed performers to their limits.
To this day, it remains the ultimate test of violin virtuosity. Heinrich Ignaz Biber was one of the most important composers for the violin in the history of the instrument. As a violinist, his technique was outstanding. He also wrote one of the earliest known pieces for solo violin, the monumental Passacaglia of the Mystery Sonatas.

In the works of JS Bach, baroque music reached its peak. Bach was also engaged in exploring, and infinitely expanding, the range of works for solo violin. Violin works to this date were intended to display the violin's potential. In his Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, Bach also pushed performers to their limits. The Chaconne – made up of 29 variations – is universally acknowledged as one of Bach's greatest, most imaginative works. To this day, it remains the ultimate test of violinistic virtuosity.
