Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Vincent Bernhardt & Mindaugas Bačkus & Klaipėdos kamerinis orkestras

The Brandenburg Concertos are a collection of six concertos by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented to the Margrave of Brandenburg in 1721. Rooted in the Baroque concerto grosso tradition, they employ a wide range of ensemble combinations and soloistic textures with contrapuntal complexity and contrasting forces between solo groups and full ensemble, and they represent a major component of Bach's instrumental output and an important contribution to the development of the Baroque concerto form.
