Brandenburgische Konzerte 4-6

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Deutsches Symphonie‐Orchester Berlin & Lorin Maazel

The Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 4–6 are the latter three works of Johann Sebastian Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, composed and presented in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto grosso and solo-concerto textures, featuring virtuosic solo episodes, contrasting instrumental timbres and intricate counterpoint, and they occupy an important place in Bach's output as demonstrations of his development of instrumental colour and formal invention.
First released: 12th March 1996
