The Concerto According to Italian Taste or Italienisches Konzert, BWV 971 published in 1735 as the first half of the Clavier-Übung II is a three-movement concerto for solo harpsichord from two manuals by J.S. Bach.<br /> The Italian concerto, as a style, is based on the contrasting roles of two different groups of instruments in an ensemble: Bach emulates this effect, creating contrast through the different manuals.<br /> This is, along with the French Overture and some of the Goldberg Variations, one of the fre pieces by this composer that specifically calls for a two-manual instrument.<br /><br />Johann Sebastian Bach<br />Italian Concerto, BWV 971<br /><br />ℹ ▶ ️More from Johann Sebastian Bach: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOLWEM39FaGYfiqiEbHmZa9OJ00VI2-x3<br /><br />Ludwig van Beethoven,<br />Final Ninth Symphony, Op. 125<br />https://youtu.be/UWzUBVgtEV4<br /><br />#Bach #ClassicalMusic #Composer
