Bach sent the Brandenburg Concertos as a "calling card" introduction to the Margrave of Brandenburg, whom Bach wanted a job with. This was a standard practice of the time - to introduce yourself and hopefully impress a prospective employer, you sent a generous sample of your work. So far as we can tell, Bach never even got an interview. It's doubtful Bach ever expected the Brandendurg Concertos to be performed at Brandenburg, and indeed, they were not performed in the Margrave's lifetime. It is also very likely that they were actually written well before Bach applied for the job, and were simply (among his finished pieces) the ones he chose to send. They were "re-discovered" and performed for the first time in 1849 - 99 years after Bach's death.
