The Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Deutsche Bachsolisten & Helmut Winschermann

The Brandenburg Concertos are a collection of six concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented to the Margrave of Brandenburg in 1721. Composed in the Baroque idiom, they employ varied and often unconventional instrumental groupings and concertante textures that explore the concerto grosso principle and reflect Bach's synthesis of Italian, German and French stylistic influences within his career as a composer of instrumental music.
