| Naxos essentials | Among the great works of Johann Sebastian Bach, are a group of six orchestral works known as the Brandenburg Concertos. Often described as having been composed for Christian Ludwig, Margrave of Brandenburg, the works had, in fact, been written over a long period. This second disc of concertos - the first four concertos are on Naxos 8.554607 - is completed by the fourth Brandenburg recast to form a Harpsichord Concerto. Bach, a master of reusing previous compositions, adapted a Prelude and Fugue for organ, and a Trio Sonata, to form a charming concerto for violin, flute, harpsichord and strings. |
