Concerti Grossi Op. 6, Nr. 5-8

Album by George Frideric Handel & Slovenská filharmónia

Concerti grossi Op. 6, Nos. 5–8 are part of a set of baroque concerti grossi by Georg Friedrich Haendel, published in 1739. They employ the concerto grosso structure with contrasting concertino and ripieno groups, lively string writing, contrapuntal textures and dance-derived movements, reflecting Handel's engagement with instrumental forms alongside his operatic and oratorio work in the late 1730s.
