 Re: Bach Oboe d'amore conc. on oboe

Well, the Bach oboe d'amore concerto (BWV 1053) was reconstructed well after Bach's death, and was probably written for a keyboard instrument originally - and no reason why it can't be performed on oboe. I've played it on oboe but got my teacher to transpose her (electric) piano up a minor 3rd so I could play the d'amore part as it goes too low for oboe (low A) playing from the concert pitch part.

Though his keyboard concerto in F minor (I don't know the catalogue number) has been arranged time and time again for several different instruments and in various other keys - I've heard it for flute (in both A minor and in G minor!), oboe, violin and 'cello and obviously piano and harpsichord (it was used in the film 'The Amityville Horror') - and the 2nd movement is from BWV 156 (trying to decipher someone else's heiroglyphics here, so excuse the spelling errors - "Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe").

The opinions I express are my own.
