Bach var en av de mest betydande tonsättarna under 1700-talet, den period som inom konsthistorien brukar kallas barocken. På hans tid avsåg ordet ”konsert” ofta verk som innehöll passager som gav orkesterns medlemmar tillfälle att visa sig på styva linan. Brandenburgkonserterna (som fått sitt namn av att de komponerades för en markgreve av Brandenburg) är också utmärkta exempel på det.

Robert Hill keeps up the virtuoso standard with his facile harpsichord finger-work in a sizzling No. 5. ...The rarely heard Triple Concerto, with its charming slow movement (and sensitively realized interpretation) and the equally scarce F major transcription (with some impressive recorder playing) are a real bonus.
