The Sinfonia (Presto) from Bach's BWV 29 is the first movement of
Bach's Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir (We thank you, God, we
thank you). The work was composed in Leipzig in 1731, for the
inauguration of Ratscwechsel's new town council. Bach later adapted this
music as the Prelude to his Partita for Solo Violin, BWV 1006. This
arrangement for saxophone solo and ensemble is based upon the BWV 29
original version, which had used organ as the featured soloist.
Alternate versions of this solo as an alto saxophone solo with symphonic
winds or as an unaccompanied saxophone solo are also available from
Jeanne, Inc.
