  1. Either this piece was originally written as an organ concert by Vivaldi:

    and then modified by J.S. Bach:

    Or not.

  2. No, I got that wrong. It should be:
    "BWV 596 — Organ Concerto in D minor (arrangement of the Concerto for 2 Violins and Cello in D minor, RV 565, by Antonio Vivaldi)":

    Or not.

  3. Better yet, check out this version of the Bach piece, which includes the score:

    Or not.

  4. Thank you for this. I didn't understand why there was a credit for both Bach and Vivaldi. And it's very helpful to have the score.
