How to Use the RFID-RC522 Module With Arduino: In this Instructable, I'll give a walkthrough on the fundamental working principle of the RFID module coupled with its tags and chips. I'll also provide a brief example of a project I made using this RFID module with an RGB LED. As usual with my Ins. This concerto has remained one of the best known of Vivaldi’s on its own original terms. Composed between 1700 and 1710, it appeared in print in Amsterdam in 1711, numbered as his Opus 3 No 8.
An organ concerto is a piece of music, an instrumental concerto for a pipe organ soloist with an orchestra. The form first evolves in the 18th century, when composers including Antonio Vivaldi, George Frideric Handel and Johann Sebastian Bach wrote organ concertos with small orchestras, and with solo parts which rarely call for the organ pedal board. During the Classical period the organ concerto became popular in many places, especially in Bavaria, Austria and Bohemia (whether called there a concerto, pastorella, or sonata), reaching a position of being almost an integral part of the church music tradition of jubilus character. From the Romantic era fewer works are known. Finally, there are some 20th- and 21st-century examples, of which the concerto by Francis Poulenc has entered the basic repertoire, and is quite frequently played.
The organ concerto form is not usually taken to include orchestral works such as organ symphonies that call for an organ used as an extra orchestral section, examples of which include the Third Symphony of Camille Saint-Saëns, Gustav Holst's The Planets and Richard Strauss's Also sprach Zarathustra.

George Frideric Handel (1685–1759)[edit]
Handel wrote organ concertos as interludes for his oratorios—playing the organ part himself while directing the orchestra. Some are arrangements of his earlier works, or of works by other composers. For more details see the list of Handel's concertos. Many alternatives exist, so it is difficult to precisely number his organ concertos, however it is generally accepted that he wrote 16:
- HWV 289 – Op. 4 No. 1 in G minor: larghetto, allegro, adagio, andante
- HWV 290 – Op. 4 No. 2 in B-flat major: tempo ordinario, allegro, adagio, allegro ma non troppo

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750)[edit]
There is no clearly named 'organ concerto' (i.e., for organ and orchestral ensemble) by Bach, but several cantata movements contain extensive obbligato organ parts. Versions of six of these cantata movements had a later incarnation in the two harpsichord concertos BWV 1052 and 1053. Cantata 35 contains two instrumental Sinfonias with organ solo, the first of which agrees with the fragmentary keyboard concerto BWV 1059.[1] A recording of a reconstruction of this as an organ concerto was made by Ton Koopman.[2]
Bach's admiration for Antonio Vivaldi and the Italian style led to several transcriptions of instrumental concertos for solo organ, without an orchestra:
BWV | key | source | movements |
---|---|---|---|
592 | G major | Johann Ernst of Saxe-Weimar: Violin Concerto a 8 | Allegro, Grave (E minor), Presto |
593 | A minor | Vivaldi: Concerto for two violins, Op. 3 No. 8 (RV 522) | Allegro (or Tempo Giusto), Adagio (D minor), Allegro |
594 | C major | Vivaldi: Grosso Mogul violin concerto (RV 208) | Allegro, Recitativ: Adagio (A minor), Allegro – Cadenza – Allegro |
595 | C major | Johann Ernst of Saxe-Weimar: lost Concerto | Uses the first movement only. |
596 | D minor | Vivaldi: Concerto for two violins, Op. 3 No. 11 (RV 565) | Allegro, Grave, Fuga, Largo e spiccato, Allegro |
597 | E-flat major | (possibly neither an arrangement, nor by Bach) | [no tempo indication], Gigue |
