in the early nineteenth century the virtuosity of the violinist niccolò paganini heralded a new generation of violinists. the polish violinist karol lipiński, trained with paganini and toured all the main cities in europe before eventually settling in dresden. in 1841, as part of a complete edition of bach's works by the leipzig publisher c.f. peters, he prepared a new performing edition of bwv 1014–1019 in collaboration with the pianist carl czerny. it had the title "six grandes sonates pour piano et violon obligé". for the edition, moritz hauptmann corrected errors in nägeli's version by going back to original manuscripts; and lipinski decided upon bowing and other performing details by playing through the sonatas with the organist august alexander klengel. gottfried wilhelm fink, the editor of the allgemeine musikalische zeitung, commented that ""die angabe der bezeichnungen von einem manne kommt, der nicht blos volkommener meister seines instrumentes, sondern auch vom geiste bach’scher grossartigkeit durchdrungen ist"" ("the provision of annotations comes from a man who is not merely a perfect master of his instrument, but also suffused with the sublimity of bach’s spirit").
