Ernesto Tamayo Plays Bach

Sonata for Solo Violin in A minor, BWV 1003
Prelude, Fugue & Allegro in D major, BWV 998
Sonata for Flute and Continuo in E minor, BWV 1034
     'An outstanding debut from 25 year-old Cuban guitarist, Ernesto Tamayo. It is always a joy to hear familiar Bach works transcribed for guitar. These works for violin are familiar to all of us. But Ernesto gives us much more, he puts a lot of himself into his interpretation. He is both technically skilled and exceptionally expressive.' - Jan Hanford - the J.S. Bach Home Page

The 2nd Sonata in A minor for Solo Violin ( BWV 1003 ) was transcribed
( presumedly by Bach ) into the key of D minor for Solo Keyboard. What
is the BWV number of this work? ( hint: check my catalog )

BWV 964 - Sonata in D minor


Bach transcribed this work for Solo Violin for Lute:

BWV 1006, Fugue from BWV 1001
or False, if you read the question as referring to BWV 1003 from the previous question.


Name two instruments that might be part of a Continuo

Cello, Violone, Harpsichord, Organ, Lute, Viola da Gamba ( and possibly others ).
