ROBERTO GERHARD : Concerto for Orchestra

Sunday 25 April, 1965 – Boston, Massachusetts

BBC Symphony Orchestra, cond. Antal Dorati

Oxford University Press, London, 1965

“... Ensemble playing, the distinguishing feature of the concerto for orchestra, in fact here takes the place of the virtuoso soloist in the traditional concerto. As a result, one of the composer's tasks is to provide such varied instances of virtuoso team-work as will show up the quality of the Orchestra as an ensemble.”

— Roberto Gerhard
