Concertianna - CD

Concertianna by Ondřej Kukal is another CD by the talented violinist, conductor, and composer who has dedicated his life to music despite a fateful illness that changed his life in 2003. The concertante pieces for trumpet, timpani, clarinet, viola, or trombone were composed by the composer in some cases together with the performers, for example, the author of the cadenza in the piece Timpaniano is timpanist Tibor Adamský. Ondřej Kukal is among the most performed contemporary Czech composers, and anyone who listens to the CD will understand why. 1.
