Concertos For Harpsichord & Strings

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Ivor Bolton & St. James’ Baroque

Concertos for Harpsichord & Strings is a collection of keyboard concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed chiefly between 1738 and 1741. Rooted in the Baroque style, the works feature a prominent harpsichord solo in dialogue with a string ensemble, combining contrapuntal textures and virtuosic figuration that reflect Bach's late Leipzig output and his contribution to the development of the keyboard concerto genre.
