Bach/Vivaldi Concerto in D major BWV 972 - I Part (Allegro) Performed by : Eduard Hrmushyan

J.S.Bach/A.Vivaldi Concerto in D major BWV 972 Performed by: Eduard Hrmushyan Guitar - Max Cuker 2021 doubletop Tbilisi State Chamber Orchestra 'Georgian Sinfonietta' The concerto transcriptions of Johann Sebastian Bach date from his second period at the court in Weimar (1708–1717). Bach transcribed for organ and harpsichord a number of Italian and Italianate concertos, mainly by Antonio Vivaldi, but with others by Alessandro Marcello, Benedetto Marcello, Georg Philipp Telemann and the musically talented Prince Johann Ernst of Saxe-Weimar. It is thought that most of the transcriptions were probably made in 1713–1714. Their publication by C.F. Peters in the 1850s and by Breitkopf & Härtel in the 1890s played a decisive role in the Vivaldi revival of the twentieth century. Johann Sebastian Bach was a court musician in Weimar from 1708 to 1717. He wrote most, if not all, of his concerto transcriptions for organ (BWV 592–596) and for harpsichord (BWV 592a and 972–987) from July 1713 to July 1714. Most of these transcriptions were based on concertos by Antonio Vivaldi. Recorded by 'Author's Studio' on 13 October 2022 at Tbilisi State Conservatoire
