Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 2, 4 & 5

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & La magnifica comunità

This release collects three of Johann Sebastian Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, composed in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto grosso writing through interplay between soloists and ensemble, marked ornamentation, contrasting textures and energetic rhythmic drive, and they form a key component of Bach's instrumental output and the wider development of Baroque orchestral repertoire.
