At the morendo end of this concerto’s second movement, the soloist plays a descending G major pentatonic scale in a series of harmonics. This piece’s final movement opens with low strings playing F-sharps before a trio of horns introduce the jaunty, triplet-laden main theme. The descending melody, “long high F-sharp, E D B, D A” begin the lyrical second theme of this concerto’s first movement. The soloist enters in major on the notes “long B, C-sharp D-sharp (*) B” (-5[1])in this piece, which was inspired by Victor Herbert’s (-5[1])second piece in the same (10[1])genre. This concerto quotes its composer’s song “Leave Me Alone” in its third movement. When this concerto’s intended player, Hanuš Wihan (“HAWN-oosh WEE-hawn”), was unable to make the premiere, a gift of two rare pigeons helped Leo Stern become his replacement. For 10 points, name this B minor concerto for a low string soloist written by a Czech composer. ■END■ (10[2])
