Brandenburg Concertos?
I'm almost embarrassed to ask this question, but being a lover of classical music for some time, never I understand why the Brandenburg Concerts are so important and popular. Is it due to some unique style that never got in trouble?
Is several things: 1) The Brandenburg Concertos are examples of how "Concerto Grosso", whereby two or more instruments of 'only' is pitted against the rest of the orchestra (the 'ripieno') - especially numbers 3 and 6. This was a fairly basic form has not changed much since the time popularized Corelli in the late 17th century. However, Bach's Brandenburg are musically and technically beyond these models. 2) Bach's Brandenburg are also examples and evolution the concerts of the kind that Vivaldi was submitted shortly before him, and whose work he admired Bach. Thus, the Brandenburg betraying its roots in two earlier models, while surpasses anything that came before both. 3) Also make extreme technical demands of the soloists, often beyond those performed by the first composers. The part of the trumpet in the 2nd Concerto, for example, would have required a player of supreme skill. Evidence yet of the greatest players today Almost 300 years later. 4) As already noted, the key cadence in the first movement of Concierto 5 sounds like a crazy improvisation in a rock or jazz keyboardist. The musical language in Brandenburg was taken to the limits of their time (and it is always important to remember the historical and musical context of these works). The context of Brandenburg is that of Corelli, Vivaldi and Handel's principles - no more than that. Do you have to convince everyone?
