Product Specs
In 1924 Janacek heard a performance by piano virtuoso Jan
Herman which impressed him so
much that he decided to write a concertante piece for piano. However, Janacek
did not have
a concerto with orchestra in mind, but a concertino, where other instruments would
join the
solo piano in a work betraying the austerity so typical of him: in the first
movement just the
French horn, in the second the E flat clarinet, and then other instruments -
two violins, viola
and bassoon. After its premiere in February 1926 the Concertino was ranked
among the most
original chamber music scores by this composer, along with the wind sextet
Youth (Mladi)
and String Quartet No. 1.
