Brandenburg Concertos nos. 1–3 / Orchestral Suite no. 1

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Marlboro Festival Orchestra & Pau Casals

The Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 1–3 and the Orchestral Suite No. 1 are Baroque instrumental works by Johann Sebastian Bach, with the Brandenburg Concertos presented in a manuscript dated 1721 and the Orchestral Suite No. 1 generally dated to the 1710s. They feature contrasting concertante textures, contrapuntal writing, dance-derived movements and varied orchestration, characteristics that place these works at the centre of early 18th-century German instrumental repertoire.
