739 ( Johann Sebastian Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G-Major, BWV 1048 )

739 ( Johann Sebastian Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G-Major, BWV 1048 )


As of yesterday it has been two years since I started my song blog; since I totally spaced it, I will go on ahead and pick an appropriate song a day late.
This is actually one of the more popular of the six concertos; once the first couple of bars of music are played you should immediately recognize it. One interesting thing about this concerto in particular is that the second movement consists of only two chords that are played on the harpsichord.

Here is an excellent performance of the concerto performed by the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra.
Here is the first movement: Allegro on YouTube.
Here is the second movement :Adagio on YouTube.
Here is the third movement: Allegro on YouTube.


My song pick a year ago today: The Buoys - Give Up Your Guns
My song pick two years ago today: The Buoys - Timothy
