The Piano Concerto No.3 in D Major, BWV 1054 is part of the Harpsichord concertos by Bach, which mainly took place when he was the director of the Leipzig University’s Collegium Musicum. In contrast, to the violin concertos, there were no direct modes to follow with piano concertos. Thus, Bach solved this problem through a keyboard system that used a technique similar to those of earlier Italian violin concertos.
