The preludio of the third piece in E consists primarily of sixteenth notes and was transcribed as the first sinfonia in "Wir danken dir, Gott." One of these works has a fugue derived from the chorale "Komme, Heiliger Geist," while another follows each movement with variations marked double. The most famous part of these works is a fifth movement whose first two measures require up to four held notes while simultaneously playing half-notes and dotted quarter and eighth notes. That movement is a massive series of 34 variations on an eight bar theme and is called the (*) Chaconne. For 10 points, name this set of six solo violin works by Johann Sebastian Bach.
