   Why did Christian Ludwig not perform the Brandenburg Concertos?

   • As a younger son, Christian Ludwig lacked the resources to support such a talented ensemble. It is likely that these concerti were never performed at the Brandenburg court. Brandenburg Concertos, six concerti grossi by Johann Sebastian Bach, considered masterful examples of balance between assorted groups of soloists and a small orchestra.
