Concerti Grossi, Op. 3, Nos. 1-6

Album by George Frideric Handel & Concerto Copenhagen & Lars Ulrik Mortensen

Concerti Grossi, Op. 3, Nos. 1-6 is a set of six concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1734. They exemplify Handel's use of the Baroque concerto grosso form, contrasting a small group of soloists with the full ensemble through spirited fast movements and lyrical slow movements, employing contrapuntal textures and dance-derived rhythms, and mark his engagement with Italian models and the expansion of his instrumental output in the mid-1730s.
