Concerti grossi Op. 6

Album by George Frideric Handel & Combattimento Consort Amsterdam & Jan Willem de Vriend

Concerti grossi, Op. 6 is a collection of concerti grossi by Georg Friedrich Händel, published in 1739. These works exemplify the Baroque concerto grosso form with contrasts between small group and full ensemble, contrapuntal textures, dance-derived movements and rich orchestral colour, and they occupy an important place among Händel's instrumental output and the English Baroque repertoire.
