Brandenburg Concertos

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Concerto Italiano & Rinaldo Alessandrini

The Brandenburg Concertos are a set of six concertos by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and presented in 1721. They exemplify Baroque concerto grosso textures, featuring varied solo and ensemble instrumentations, contrapuntal writing, ornamented melodic lines and rhythmic vitality, and mark a mature phase in Bach's instrumental composition that illustrates his exploration of diverse instrumental combinations within high Baroque practice.
