Chaconne Concerto Grosso
Scherzo
   
  Chaconne
Music by Johann Sebastian Bach
Male or Female Solo – 13 minutes


Limón created this solo for himself in 1942, and it has since been performed by Company principle dancers and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Limón tried to capture the formal austerity and the profound quality of the music with his choreography, and the solo is stunning when performed with a violinist onstage.
