U svom diplomskom radu ću govoriti o sonatama i partitama za solo violinu Johanna Sebastiana Bacha, te njihovoj važnosti u repertoaru ozbiljnog violinista. Ukratko ću govoriti o Bachovom životu i stvaralaštvu njegova bogata skladateljskoga života. Osvrnuti ću se na važan vremenski period kada je živio u Cöthenu u kojem je nastalo najviše svjetovnih instrumentalnih djela. Opisat ću okolnosti u kojima su nastale Partite i sonate za violinu solo te važnu razliku koju čini sviranje na baroknoj violini od sviranja na modernoj violini. Također ću pisati i o građi Sonata i partita i navesti neke od zanimljivih činjenica za određene stavke. Vrlo važan aspekt tog djela je njegovo izvođenje kroz povijest i danas te suočavanje sa studijskim snimanjem. Izrazit ću i svoje osobno mišljenje i iskustvo sviranja Bacha te zaključiti rad sa pozitivnim ishodima sviranja njegovih djela.In my graduation thesis I will speak about the Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach, and their importance in the repertoire of a serious violinist. I will briefly talk about Bach's life and the creation of his rich life as a composer. I will look back at an important period of time when he lived in Cöthn, where most of the world's instrumental works came about. I will describe the circumstances in which Sonatas and Partitas for violin solo were made, and the important difference that makes playing in baroque violins from playing on modern violins. I will also write about the structure of Sonatas and Partitas and talk about some specific and interesting movements. A very important aspect of this masterpiece is it's performing during the past and today and also dealing with studio recording of this piece. I will express my personal thoughts and experiences on playing Bach and conclude the thesis with the positive outcomes of playing his music
