This reminded me of an old LP containing two concertos by CPE Bach
for the unusual combination of harpsichord, piano and strings which
appear to date from his later years in the 1780s.  I assume there are
modern recordings of them but there are many CDs of his many harpsichord
concertos and finding the right combination of his name for a search
engine to recognise can be rather frustrating.  In any case, I remember
them as attractive works.
