Bach's Brandenburg Concertos were forgotten in a private library until 1849, but since their publication then they've been among Bach's most renown works. The fourth Brandenburg Concerto was written for a string orchestra ripieno, with a virtuosic solo violin part and beautiful solo flute duet on top of it. Considered one of the lighter Brandenburg Concertos, this piece tends to be an audience favorite.
