Concerto brandebourgeois n°03 en Sol majeur BWV 1048 - 3e mvt

About this work

The final Allegro of the third Brandenburg Concerto BWV 1048 begins immediately after the brief central suspension. A rapid compound-time motif travels through three violins, three violas and three cellos, supported by continuo.

Entries pursue and overlap one another while sequences shift the energy from group to group. The texture remains clear because Bach alternates unison, imitation and reply without establishing a permanent principal soloist.

Agree on a shared subdivision before pursuing speed. Each section should pass on the motif with identical articulation and leave space for the next reply; bass parts maintain harmonic direction without weighing down first beats.
