As the opening movement of the Brandenburg Concerto Number Five in D major unfolds, the harpsichord seems at first willing to play a subservient role as part of the continuo. But as time goes on it becomes more and more assertive until finally it bursts forth into an astonishing cadenza of tremendous difficulty. Violin and flute share the solo spot at the beginning. but once the cadenza begins, they are cast completely into the shade. At the opening of the cadenza, we are listening to the dying strains from the keyboard as mere continuo accompaniment and the birth of the virtuoso harpsichord concerto.
