Johann Sebastian Bach: Concertos for Harpsichord and Strings
Like many Baroque composers, Johann Sebastian Bach was not afraid to continually adapt his works to contemporary performance practice. In the 1730s, he transposed numerous of his solo concertos for the then-new solo instrument, the harpsichord, creating groundbreaking arrangements.
