īach's dedication to the Margrave was dated 24 March 1721. He appears to have selected the six pieces from concertos he had composed over a number of years while Kapellmeister at Köthen, and possibly extending back to his employment at Weimar (1708–17). Bach wrote out the music himself rather than leaving it to a copyist. In 1721, Johann Sebastian Bach compiled a collection of six concertos and presented it to Christian Ludwig, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt, titled Six Concerts à plusieurs instruments (Six Concertos for several instruments). They are widely regarded as some of the best orchestral compositions of the Baroque era. Some of them feature several solo instruments in combination. The original French title is Six Concerts à plusieurs instruments, meaning 'Six Concertos for several instruments'.

The Brandenburg Concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach ( BWV 1046–1051), are a collection of six instrumental works presented by Bach to Christian Ludwig, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt, in 1721 (though probably composed earlier).
