Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Josef Suk & Sukův komorní orchestr

The Brandenburg Concertos are a collection of six concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto grosso practice by contrasting groups of soloists with the full ensemble, employing varied instrumentation, intricate counterpoint and dance-derived rhythms, and they mark an important point in Bach's instrumental output around the time he compiled them.
