Johann Sebastian Bach: The Six Brandenburg Concertos BWV 1046-1051: Orchestre Symphonique

In these masterpieces Bach abandoned the standard type of concerto grosso in favour of a variety of solo combinations, resulting in music of intense, appealing originality, complex textures and development, and unprecedentedinstrumentation. Among the most frequently performed and recorded in the repertoire, the concertos are reprinted here from the definitive Bach-Gesellschaft edition.
