Par JANACEK LEOS. One of Leos Janàcek 's last chamber music works was written in the autumn of 1926 at the suggestion of the pianist Otakar Hollmann (1894& 1967), an invalid from the First World War. Like his contemporary Paul Wittgenstein, Hollmann urged composers to write something for Piano left hand; he succeeded in winning over Bohuslav Martinu, Erwin Schulhoff and Janàcek to do this. Janàcek did not want, as he put it, to compose a ; dance for one leg, but finally wrote a four-movement work with associations to military music, scored for Piano, Flute (Piccolo), two Trumpets, three Trombones (preferably valveTrombones because of the fast passages) and a tenor Tuba. The French Horn was allowed by the composer to substitute the Tuba. The Capriccio was premiered by Otakar Hollmann and members of the Czech Philharmonic in Prague on 2 March 1928 in the presence of the enthusiastic composer. The new edition is based on volume E/5 of the ; Critical Complete Edition of the Works of Leos Janàcek. Urtext based on the ; Critical Complete Edition of the Works of Leos Janàcek. New foreword ( Cz /Eng/Ger) by the editor Jarmila Prochàzkovà. Includes additional part for French Horn./ Répertoire / Piano et Instruments à Vent
