Overview
Could there be a more perfect collection of concertos than the six Brandenburgs? Dazzlingly inventive, virtuosic, exuberant, inspired. And experiencing them all on one program, performed—as they were meant to be heard—on period instruments with our star-studded cast of principals as the soloists is priceless!
“Their virtuosity represents not only a pinnacle of modern playing technique on period instruments, but the summit of Bach’s highly personal take on the Italian concerto style.”
