​
BWV 1004 is Bach’s D minor Chaconne for solo violin (BWV 1004) It was written between 1717 and 1720. Most of Bach’s solo instrumental music was written a) for his own satisfaction b) as textbooks demonstrating the possibilities inherent in different musical forms c) to show off his genius and “invention” d) as exercises for his students. 
Yehudi Menuhin called the Chaconne "the greatest structure for solo violin that exists". Violinist Joshua Bell said the Chaconne is "not just one of the greatest pieces of music ever written, but one of the greatest achievements of any man in history." The popular keyboard arrangement of the Chaconne you will hear below was created by the 19th Century musician Ferruccio Busoni.
