Concerti grossi, op. 6, 1-4

Album by George Frideric Handel & Camerata Academica & Camerata Würzburg

Concerti grossi, Op. 6, Nos. 1-4 are the first four concerti in George Frideric Handel's Op. 6 collection, published in 1739. These Baroque orchestral works use the concerto grosso format with contrasts between full ensemble and small group, employing intricate counterpoint, dance-derived rhythms and Italianate melodic writing, and they represent Handel's contribution to the revival and refinement of the concerto grosso in his instrumental output.
