1852 Johann Sebastian Bach - BWV. 1051 - Brandenburg Concerto No. 6 in B-Flat

BWV. 1051; Year: 1721; Genre: Baroque Period/classical

Well, it's the first of September once again and yet another year has passed since I started this blog; today marks my blog's 5th anniversary. As I have done every year since my first pick, except for the one year I was a day late, I am picking another one of J.S. Bach's Brandenburg Concertos. While this is the final one for me to pick, by all means it's not one I dislike in any way, nor is it my least favourite amongst it brothers, it just happens to be the last one that I picked. Many of the other ones just happened to fit my mood better on previous picks. I guess it's kind of fitting to have the sixth concerto as the final one chosen though.
Anyway, I guess next year I'll have to start another theme to mark my blog's anniversary.
Enjoy this beautiful music and I'll catch you all sometime tomorrow!

Here is a performance of the piece performed by the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra:
