Concerting music
In the Classical music exclusively, one calls music concerting a instrumental Musical genre , comprising sound oppositions of masses - contrast between a instrument only and several instruments, or, between an small group of instruments and a whole Orchestre, etc
The concerting music was born with the period baroque, but the word “concerto” - with the modern direction that we allot to him - is employed only since the end of the 17th century.
At that time, concerting music revêt primarily two forms:
-
the form of the Concerto grosso, in which several Soliste S - very often three - is opposed to the Tutti.
-
the form of the concerto of soloist - also called “traditional concerto”, in which a single soloist dialogs with the orchestra.
At the end of the 18th century, the concerto grosso disappears, not without to have influenced other forms - Symphonia concertante, double or triple concerto, for example -, while the concerto of soloist, becomes “symphonic concerto” insofar as the tutti profits from all the evolutions of the Symphony orchestra.
- For example, concertos of Mozart.
As of this time, the soloists of the concerting music are from now on specialists in their instrument, and one notes a very clear separation enters, on the one hand the musician of Pupitre, which remains attached to its orchestra, on the other hand the concert performer, intended for a career of virtuoso.
