Бортнянский - Концертная симфония B-dur II. Larghetto - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Septet for piano, harp, two violins, viola da gamba (can be performed by viola), bassoon and cello.

It is filled with a clear, cloudless atmosphere of “serenade” music of the 18th century - music designed to “delight the hearts” of listeners. This music attracts with its subtle grace and crystal purity of style.

The best instrumental work by the composer. The intonations of Russian dance songs here are organically woven into the musical fabric of the extreme parts - a cheerful allegro and a dance rondo, and the dreamy Siciliana in the middle slow part of the cycle resembles similar themes of the lyrical “Russian songs” of Dubyansky and Kozlovsky. Having absorbed the aesthetic principles of Western European classicism, Bortnyansky here remains a completely Russian artist, who managed to put his individual features into the traditional form. Here he acts as the founder of Russian chamber ensemble music.
