Cadenzas

In the late classical period composers began to want to determine every note in the cadenzas of solo concertos, rather than leaving this as a matter for the soloist's virtuoso inspiration. Penderecki's cadenzas for Haydn's celebrated trumpet concerto are written in this tradition, but the creative will of the modern composer makes them far wider in scope. Penderecki's stylistic methods leave the soloist every opportunity to display their virtuoso skills. The original notes of Haydn's concerto movements remain present as an underlying framework. Having the horn parts worked into the cadenzas produces a highly structured form that shows the trumpet concerto of the Classical period reflected in the light of modern composition techniques.

Capriccio

From Penderecki's later period, this is a more melodic entry in his canon, though still including passages using extended technique and requiring virtuosic playing.

Sextet

This sextet is one of Penderecki's weightier contributions to the chamber music canon. The two expansive movements, Allegro moderato and Larghetto, are strongly subdivided and structured by means of different expressions and tempo changes. The work is an impressive manifestation of a composer at the height of his creative powers and is comparable to the violin concerto Metamorphoses and the recently premiered Concerto grosso for 3 cellos and orchestra.Each instrument is equally involved in the musical development and all players are confronted with the rewarding task of integrating brilliant, virtuosic sections with lyrical and meditative ensemble passages. Clarinet, horn, string trio and piano.

Sonata No. 2 Vn/Pno

In this second Sonata Krzysztof Penderecki shows the fruits of almost five decades of continuing artistic development. While the first Sonata by the 20 year-old student was already a remarkable stylistic experiment in blending the sound qualities of the two instruments, this new five-movement work with its depth of thought and expressive power demonstrates the masterful skill of the experienced composer. Like the second Concerto for violin and orchestra, Metamorphosen, this new sonata was given its first performance by Anne-Sophie Mutter and is dedicated to her.
