Sei Duetti Concertanti per Violino et Alto Viola

František Xaver Tost (1754 - 1829) was one of the personalities who profiled the musical life of Bratislava in the Classical period. His works were extremely versatile, including compositions for the theatre, orchestral and concertante works, chamber or dance pieces for various social occasions, as well as sacred works. The six concertante duets for violin and viola are characterised by the musical language of mature classicism, where the relationship between the two instruments is concertante, and the musical action is carried by the alternation of their thematic dominance. 2-CD presents a studio-recorded interpretation of Tost's cycle on historical instruments, as performed by the eminent Slovak instrumentalists Peter Spišský (violin) and Miloš Valent (viola).
