today's classical track of the day is:

JS Bach - Partita #2 in D min for solo violin, BWV 1004 - Thomas Zehetmair



i don't have much to say about this track, except that i approve of zehetmair's interpretation of bach. bach excelled in many forms of writing (such as the fugues featured a week or so ago), and his partitas and sonatas for solo violin, and analogous works for cello, are among his finest.
