What is a "concerto grosso"?
A concerto grosso is a type of musical composition from the Baroque period that features a group of solo instruments, known as the concertino, contrasted with a larger ensemble, called the ripieno or tutti. The composition is structured in several movements, typically including fast, slow, and lively sections. The concerto grosso allows for a dynamic interplay between the smaller group of soloists and the full orchestra, showcasing the skill of the individual players while highlighting the rich texture of the larger ensemble. This form was popular in the 17th and early 18th centuries and is known for its elaborate and expressive style.
