Concertos for One, Two, Three & Four Harpsichords & String Orchestra

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Anton Heiller & Erna Heiller & Kurt Rapf & Christa Landon & Antonio Janigro & Zagrebački solisti

Concertos for One, Two, Three & Four Harpsichords & String Orchestra is a collection of harpsichord concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed circa 1717–1723. Rooted in the Baroque concerto grosso tradition, the works juxtapose solo harpsichord virtuosity with string orchestra textures and exemplify Bach's contrapuntal craftsmanship and his engagement with Italian concerto forms within his career as a church and court composer.
