Program note
Concerto piccolo I is inspired by the wave hitting the rocks, which is very rhythmic, but quickly creates a special feeling of time, where you are both completely present and outside of time itself.
Concerto piccolo was commissioned by PIF Castelfidardo 2023 as final work in third round, premio and was played for the first time by Zhiyuan Zhang (first price), Olzhas Nurlanov (second price) and Petar Dinčić (third price) at Teatro Astro, Castelfidardo, Italy by Orchestra Filarmonica della Calabria and conductor Alfredo Luigi Cornacchia.
