The Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of six concertos by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, presented as a collection in 1721. Composed in the Baroque idiom, they employ a wide range of solo and ensemble combinations, inventive counterpoint and distinctive instrumental colour, and they exemplify Bach's mature exploration of concerto form and orchestral writing.
