Concerto grosso - Zdeněk Lukáš
Concerto Grosso is approximately eleven minute piece, which was originally composed for Musici Pragenses ensemble by composer Zdeněk Lukáš. This is one of his first pieces. It was created during his Summer holiday trip to Brdy mountains in 1964.
Originally the piece was intended for eleven players only - four soloist, string quartet and seven other more or less solo players. However, it is only seldom performed this way. According to Lukáš's wish, the number of players is usually extended by another seven instruments - four violins, viola, cello and double bass. Sometimes the total number of players is once more multiplied by two or even three (according to the possibilities of each orchestra).
