[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

Concerti Grossi played by Brandenburg Consort ?

[Richard Barrett]

That's Giuseppe Torelli's op.6 concertos, which were dedicated to the Electress of Brandenburg but otherwise have no connection with Bach.

[Flosshilde]

Torelli, Corelli, who's counting? I obviously mis-heard, being more familiar with Corelli than Torelli.

[Richard Barrett]

Just sayin'.

[Flosshilde]

No probs & thanx for the correction . I was in a hurry to post before it finished, so didn't have time to check details on line (if they are there). I was also remembering a discussion a while back in a thread about reconstructions of a seventh (& more) B. concerto by Bach

another one was played in the fill in gap last week - sounds as tho the continuity presenter has a favourite Cd - tho tonight he played a couple on non-Bach (or at least not J S) items

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

That's Giuseppe Torelli's op.6 concertos, which were dedicated to the Electress of Brandenburg but otherwise have no connection with Bach.

I must admit that this topic had me going for a moment. If only...
