In his second Brandenburg concerto, Bach took the Baroque concerto form to its limit, pitting solo trumpet, oboe, recorder and violin against the orchestra, offering a remarkable palette of colour alongside dazzling harmonic invention. We also perform Bach’s Suite in B minor with Manchester Baroque’s flautist Martyn Shaw alongside concertos by Vivaldi, Telemann and Handel featuring our leader, violinist Pauline Nobes, oboist Michael Niesemann, trumpeter Robert Vanryne, and special guest on recorder Yasaman Mashhouri.
