Abstract
The last movement of the Partita in D minor BWV 1004, called ‘Chaconne’, which was one of J.S.Bach’s sonatas for a solo violin, had a revolutionary impact at the time it was composed, and it has still been performed quite often at the present time. It was composed in 1720. Chaconne, composed of interconnected variations, has a separate narrative language in each variation. From the Baroque period onwards, many composers and performers influenced by Chaconne, interpret the Chaconne in different styles and made arrangements for some other instruments. Chaconne, a 3/4 dance, has participated in the polyphonic music culture of Europe in the 16th century and is thought to originate from South America. Over the years, Chaconne has reached the culmination of development in the 18th century by spreading to other instruments. Changes were not only for Chaconne but also for instruments of that period. Baroque violin and bow were used when Bach’s Chaconne was composed. Although there was no visual difference between baroque and modern violin, the baroque violin had many differences in terms of technic and sound. These differences and the structure of baroque music now lead Chaconne to listen to different interpretations. In this article, the changes in the chaconne and violin in time, effects of these changes on the modern performances of Chaconne and works to be done for Chaconne via interpretation and technique are discussed.
