Concertino per tromba ed orchestra - Václav Trojan

22. červenec 2004

Václav Trojan's music ranks between Bohuslav Martinů‘s folklore work and Iša Krejčí’s neoclassicist work. He is often seen as a traditionalist. His stylistic preferences certainly originated from the fact that he wanted his music to be used more widely and, as a result, scenic and film music prevailed. He was actually one of the first Czech composers who started to work on films and cooperated with the radio. Moreover, he was an expert on different instruments and precise instrumentator. His strenghts were appreciated even by supporters of avantgarde.

Concertino per tromba ed orchestra offers the soloist the opportunity to demonstrate the virtues of his or her instrument. Trojan finished composing this 12-minute piece on 23 January 1977. That was the year he celebrated his seventieth birthday. Concertino was commissioned by the international competition Prague Spring, where it was included as a set piece.
