Brandenburg Concertos / Triple Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Kammerorchester Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach & Peter Schreier

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of six Baroque concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented to the Margrave of Brandenburg in 1721. They exemplify the concerto grosso form and feature diverse solo combinations and orchestral colours, including unconventional pairings of instruments, that illustrate Bach's inventive approach to instrumental writing during his Köthen period and his contribution to Baroque orchestral repertoire.
First released: 1993
