Brandenburg Concertos nos. 1, 2 & 3

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of orchestral concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented in 1721. They exemplify the Baroque concerto grosso idiom through contrasting instrumental groupings, virtuosic solo writing, rich contrapuntal textures and vivid instrumental colour, and they stand as central examples of Bach's orchestral writing from his early 18th-century period.
