Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 in D major BWV 1050 - Sato | Netherlands Bach Society

The Netherlands Bach Society performs the 'Brandenburg' Concerto in D major for All of Bach. Bach himself never went to Amsterdam, and Rembrandt never went to Leipzig or Berlin. However, there were many ties between the Republic of the Netherlands and Bach’s employers. Nowadays, both Rembrandt’s paintings and Bach’s music are regarded as icons of European art, and here they are presented as a unique combination for eye and ear.

For this recording, we were guests at the Gallery of Honour at the Rijksmuseum, in Amsterdam. We were invited to come and perform Bach’s unusual ‘Brandenburg' Concerto no. 5 in order to celebrate the loan of an exceptional harpsichord to the museum. For the recording, the original instrument, built by Johannes Ruckers in 1640, was played by harpsichordist Richard Egarr.

Recorded for the project All of Bach on May 11th 2018 at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating http://bit.ly/2uZuMj5.
