Brandenburg Concertos 4-6
Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Karl Münchinger
Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 4–6 are part of a set of six concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed and published in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto grosso and solo-concerto textures, combining contrapuntal writing, rhythmic vitality and virtuosic solo passages for strings and winds, and are representative of Bach's middle-period instrumental output that influenced later ensemble writing.
First released: April 1989
