It's a marvelous re-thinking of an old form that really works and is "contemporary music for those who don't like contemporary music." - KPBX "Breathes new life into the old forms." - Colin Clarke, Fanfare Magazine "Check this one out - you will be surprised by the music and the stunning performances." - Classical CD Review "His work already has a far-seeing quality that raises him to the status of a musician’s musician" - World Music Report David Chesky's newest radically original powerful compositions, The Venetian Concertos, are a tribute to the classic Italian Concerto Grosso form. Chesky uses his fondness for the Baroque as a starting point. However, influenced and inspired by Brazilian, Urban, and Latin music, he then replaces the Baroque line contour with dense chromatic polyphony. The collision of styles creates a powerful new definition of the Orchestral Concerto form, one which embraces a more contemporary and relevant approach to both counterpoint and energy.
