Sources and annotations:
The six Brandenburg concerts were presented by Bach in 1721 in a collection for Christian Ludwig, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt and dedicated to him. It is therefore assumed that they were composed before that date. The title in the autograph score shows the instrumentation for 2 violas to braccio (normal violas), 2 violas da gamba, cello, violone and harpsichord, the absence of violins is unusual. We also add that the second movement in E flat major ends with an imperfect cadence in G minor.
