Concerti grossi, op. 6 nos. 5-8

Album by George Frideric Handel & The English Concert & Trevor Pinnock

Concerti grossi, Op. 6 Nos. 5-8 is a set of four concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1739. They exemplify the Baroque concerto grosso form, contrasting a small group of soloists with the full ensemble through imitative writing, fugal passages and dance-based movements, and their publication represents a mature phase in Handel's instrumental output that helped sustain the genre's presence in 18th-century England.
