12 Concerti Grossi, op.6

Album by George Frideric Handel & English Chamber Orchestra & Raymond Leppard

12 Concerti Grossi, Op. 6 is a set of twelve concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1739. Composed in the Baroque style, the works use the concerto grosso contrast between a small group of soloists and the full ensemble, drawing on Italian concerto practice while reflecting Handel's mature instrumental writing and occupying an important place in the Baroque orchestral repertoire.
