Harpsicord Concertos BWV 1052, 1053, 1056, 1057

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Ton Koopman & Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra

Harpsichord Concertos BWV 1052, 1053, 1056 and 1057 are a set of harpsichord concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed around 1738–1741. The works exemplify Baroque concerto and keyboard writing with virtuosic harpsichord passages, contrapuntal textures and orchestral dialogue, and they represent Bach's mature engagement with the concerto form and his practice of adapting earlier instrumental material for solo keyboard repertoire.
