Despite how idiomatic they may sound, many of Bach's harpsichord concertos are almost certainly transcriptions of earlier works written for other instruments. Of the works presented on this second volume, BWV 1054 and BWV 1058 are adaptations of violin concertos. The model for BWV 1055 has been lost but it is believed to be a concerto for oboe or viola d'amore. BWV 1057, finally, is an adaptation of the well-known Brandenburg Concerto No. 4.
