Brandenburg Concertos nos. 1, 2 & 4

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Concentus Musicus Wien & Nikolaus Harnoncourt

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of six concertos by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed and presented in 1721. They showcase Baroque concerto grosso textures with contrasts between small groups of soloists and the full ensemble, employ ritornello form and intricate counterpoint, and serve as central examples of Bach's chamber-orchestral output and the Baroque concerto tradition.
