Concerti grossi, op. 6

Album by George Frideric Handel & I Musici de Montréal & Yuli Turovsky

Concerti grossi, Op. 6 is a collection of orchestral concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1739. The pieces exemplify Baroque concerto grosso practice—contrasting a small group of soloists with the full string ensemble and continuo, employing fugal textures, dance-derived movements and alternating fast and slow tempi—and represent Handel's contribution to instrumental music alongside his operatic and oratorio output.
