Johann Sebastian Bach (21 March 1685 – 28 July 1750) was a
German composer, organist, harpsichordist, violist, and violinist whose
sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra, and solo instruments drew
together the strands of the Baroque period and brought it to its
ultimate maturity. Although he did not introduce new forms, he enriched
the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique, an
unrivalled control of harmonic and motivic organisation, and the
adaptation of rhythms, forms and textures from abroad, particularly from
Italy and France.
The
Brandenburgische Konzerte
by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 1046–1051) are a collection of six
instrumental works presented by Bach to Christian Ludwig, margrave of
Brandenburg-Schwedt, in 1721 (though probably composed earlier). They
are widely regarded as among the finest musical compositions of the
Baroque era.
