Sinfonia Concertante

Creator: 
Orion Chamber Orchestra
Description: 

The Sinfonia Concertante is an 18th Century musical form which incorporates a mixture of symphony and concerto genres. Instruments can be heard performing solo lines, but they still discernibly remain a part of the total ensemble. This is opposed to a Concerto form where a soloist is prominent throughout the entire composition.
