Bach Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G major BWV 1048 – Violin I Part by Johann Sebastian Bach is issued as modern performance material by Breitkopf & Härtel, carefully prepared to meet the practical requirements of contemporary Baroque performance; addressing the concerto’s unique formal feature—where Bach provided only two chords in place of a conventional slow movement—this edition incorporates Emil Platen’s stylistically informed solution, an unstructured expansion that precedes Bach’s original chords, involves all string instruments, and maintains the improvisatory character Bach likely intended, while avoiding the impression of a fully independent movement and ensuring musical coherence for string orchestra performance.
