Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of six instrumental concertos by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed and presented in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto and concerto grosso forms through varied combinations of solo and ensemble instruments, intricate counterpoint and brisk rhythmic vigour, and occupy a significant place in Bach's output as representative examples of his instrumental writing from the Köthen period.
