Music of the Baroque: Bach’s Brandenburgs

Revel in the vibrant energy and dazzling virtuosity of Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos. So-called because of Johann Sebastian Bach’s failed attempt to secure a new job, these intriguingly complex, effortlessly joyful works for soloists and ensemble have become one of the Baroque era’s greatest success stories. The Orchestra’s talent is on full display throughout, from the swaggering hunting horns of Brandenburg Concerto No. 1 to the dark-hued Sixth Concerto.
