Concerti Grossi, Op. 3, Nr. 1 - 6

Album by George Frideric Handel & Concentus Musicus Wien & Nikolaus Harnoncourt

Concerti Grossi, Op. 3, Nos. 1–6 is a set of concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1734. Scored for a small Baroque orchestra with contrasting concertino and ripieno groups, the set employs Italianate concerto grosso forms, contrapuntal textures and dance-derived movements, and synthesises continental instrumental models with Handel's activity in London.
