Director Rick Erickson and the Bach Orchestra will conclude their performances of the Brandenburg Concertos with Nos. 3, 5, and 6. Composed in the Italian concerto grosso style, Bach presented the musical composition to Christian Ludwig, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt in 1721. An orchestral revelation in the Baroque era, Bach pioneered unusual combinations of instruments such as pairing violas and viola de gamba minus violins, and created extended solos most notably for the harpsichord, which was a new emphasis in the 18th century.
