Concerti Grossi, op. 3

Album by George Frideric Handel & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Iona Brown

Concerti Grossi, Op. 3 is a set of concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1734. They exemplify the Baroque concerto grosso genre, featuring contrasts between a small concertino and larger ripieno ensemble, alternation of slow and fast movements, dance-derived rhythms and contrapuntal textures, and they reflect Handel's engagement with instrumental composition alongside his operatic and sacred works.
