An unusual late Janacek chamber programme including the Concertino: an adventurous, amazingly experimental work. Its programme recalls the naturalism and anthropomorphisms of the adventures of the 'Cunning Little Vixen' and the concluding Allegro, opening with an unpredictable, almost swaggering recitative, is progressively hinged on an increasingly rapid rhythm that leads to a popular scene of jubilation that foreshadows the fanfares of the 'Glagolitic Mass'.
