Bach
Brandenburg
Concertos 1-6, BWV 1046-51 |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
Composed by Bach in 1721 during a period of contented productivity at
Coethen, the dedicatee for these lively chamber concertos, the Margrave
of Brandenburg never seems to have acknowledged the composer's
gift. A strange oversight for what must be amongst the most
frequently played and exuberantly joyful of Bach's prodigious output.

Pinnock's interpretation of the Brandenburgs is, frankly, one of those
little miracles that make you yearn for the era of the Baroque. In
this three-disc box set the Orchestral Suites are an equally enjoyable
bonus.
