Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 by J.S. Bach features a rich and dynamic texture characterized by a concertino of four solo instruments—Trumpet, recorder, Oboe, and violin—contrasted with a larger ripieno ensemble. This creates a dialogue between the soloists and the orchestra, showcasing intricate counterpoint and interplay. The texture shifts between homophonic and polyphonic sections, highlighting the virtuosic capabilities of each soloist while maintaining a cohesive overall sound.
