Tune of the Day: Larghetto by Bach
from Keyboard Concerto in D major, arranged for flute and piano
Johann Sebastian Bach's 16 concertos for solo harpsichord are transcriptions for keyboard of concertos composed by different Italian and German composers.
The Larghetto we propose today is the central movement of Keyboard Concerto No. 1 in D major, BWV 972, which is an arrangement of Violin Concerto RV 230, Op. 3, No. 9 by Antonio Vivaldi.
