Brandenburg Concertos Piccolo concertato, 2 Violini, una Viola col Basso Continuo. "Instrumentation": two corni da caccia (natural horns), three oboes, bassoon, violino piccolo, two violins, viola, cello, basso continuo "Duration": about 22 minutes This concerto is the only one in the collection with four movements. The concerto also exists in an alternative version, Sinfonia BWV 1046a, which appears to have been composed during Bach's years at Weimar. The Sinfonia, which lacks the third movement entirely, and the Polacca from the final movement, appears to have been intended as the opening of the cantata "Was mir behagt, ist nur die muntre Jagd", BWV
Horn Concertos (Mozart) or 1786 (Humphries 2000, 87). Given the duration of the concertos (no more than 20 minutes each) it is quite common to find these horn concertos on the same CD, or in boxed sets of Mozart's concertos for wind instruments or even all his concertos. The Naxos Records CD "Complete Works for Horn & Orchestra" includes, besides the concertos, three rondos for horn and orchestra completed by musicologists. When a CD has only one of the horn concertos, it is typically paired with another concerto for a wind instrument also by Mozart. Horn Concertos (Mozart) The Horn Concertos by Wolfgang
