Extended Keywords: Bach wrote it between 1730 and 1731 when he was the cantor at Thomasschule, in Leipzig, Germany. In addition to the two soloists, the concerto is scored for strings and basso continuo. The concerto is characterized by the subtle yet expressive relationship between the violins throughout the work. The musical structure of this piece uses fugal imitation and much counterpoint. The concerto comprises three movements: Vivace, Largo ma non tanto, Allegro
