Composed by Rudy Volkmann. 20th Century,Concert,Contemporary. Score and parts. 146 pages. Rudy Volkmann #6114339. Published by Rudy Volkmann (A0.1005650).This is a highly accessible piece for audiences and advanced players alike, A classical Divertimento with classical forms, listenable melodies, and modern harmonic structures. With seven players and seven movements, each one member of the ensemble has one movement in which they are "featured." The divertimento, nachtmusik, or cassation (all the same form) was one of the main formats of the Enlightenment (classical period). It was the perfect party piece for roving musicians - a march by which to enter, an allegro as entertainment, a minuet for the guests to dance, a slow movement to catch their breaths and find another partner for the next piece, another minuet, one more piece to listen to for entertainment, and a final march by which to leave. Removing the outside movements (the marches) and one of the minuets gave us the classical sonata form for symphonies.
