Harpsichord Concertos, BWV 1052-1058

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Zuzana Růžičková & Pražští komorní sólisté & Václav Neumann

Harpsichord Concertos, BWV 1052–1058 is a set of harpsichord concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in 1738. The works draw on Baroque concerto forms with virtuosic harpsichord writing, ritornello structures and contrapuntal textures, and they illustrate Bach's engagement with adapting orchestral and solo idioms for the keyboard within his middle-period output.
