It is the first relevant composition of that in Slovac music. Cikker felt a need of spontaneous amidst the stifling atmosphere of war-years – Concertino is a direct expression in which the composer “was delivering his heart-youth from life“. The organization of Concertino is coming out from romantic usage – three parts existence with traditional scheme refering to tempo and classical form. Piano part conception with its brilliancy is based on Chopin-Liszt sources. The character of musical language is indisputably modern, getting out from overworked impressionist elements. The first part is increasing from a contrast development of thoughts full of dynamic emotions. The middle part is an expression of lyrics and emotional deepness, being one of the elementary component of Cikker´s musical language homogene. Tha dance character of the third part and an uncommon formation of rhythmical unit reveals Cikker´s unconventional ability to apply adjacently the significant features of Slovak folklore into music language in such a way that they become its organic compound.</p><br>\n        <em>(Ľubomír Chalupka, in: commentary to the LP Opus 9112 0124, 1971.)</em><br>\n        <br>\n        \n\n        \n    </div>\n"}
