Concerti Grossi, Op. 6

Album by George Frideric Handel & Concentus Musicus Wien & Nikolaus Harnoncourt

Concerti Grossi, Op. 6 is a collection of twelve concerti grossi by George Frideric Handel, published in 1739. Written in the Baroque idiom for contrasting concertino and ripieno forces, the works employ contrapuntal textures, fugal passages and dance-derived movements, and exemplify Handel's contribution to the concerto grosso genre within the mid-18th-century English orchestral tradition.
