Bach - Prelude BWV 1006/1 Chaconne BWV 1004/5

J.S.Bach Preludio E-dur BWV 1006/1  Chaconne d-moll BWV 1004/5  fur Violine und Klavier ( Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy ) 

In 1853 Robert Schumann added a piano accompaniment to Bach’s cello suites; however, only the music to the Third Suite BWV 1009 has survived (EB 8431). But already on 8 February 1840, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy had accompanied Leipzig Gewandhaus concertmaster Ferdinand David at the piano in the performance of the two works for solo violin by Bach, whereby the "Preludio" was played as an encore. The famous "Chaconne for violin and piano" was published a few years later by no less than two publishers! Surprisingly, the former encore piece remained unpublished to this day.
