These six Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord, BWV 1014-1019 by Johann Sebastian Bach were composed during the Baroque period.

They were among the first sonatas to take the harpsichord beyond its role as a simple accompanying instrument and give it a central place in the music.

Up until then, such sonatas were scored for violin and basso continuo : the harpsichord and a cello would play a background accompaniment to highlight the violin's central part.

Here, however, the harpsichord is given a true instrumental role equal to that of the violin.
