I am looking for a musical analysis of the Concerto for Oboe and
Violin in C minor by J.S. Bach.

I need to know what instruments it calls for, what musical elements
are present, and any language to describe the piece "musically". 
Reviews, commentary, and significance of the piece itself are also
good.

Don't miss the trees for the forest, or vice versa.  I want to know
about the specifics of each movement as well as the traits of the
whole piece.  Follow this line of thinking in bringing bach a good
summary.

Well it was originally a concerto for two harpsichords but Bach did
the transcription himself.  There's a recording on Hyperion of the
violin/oboe version and they generally have excellent program notes.
