Concerto Africano [conductor’s score]

The Concerto Africano is one of the most emblematic works by Piotr Lachert, a founding figure of New Consonant Music. The present version, completed by the composer shortly before his death in 2018, replaces the earlier versions dating from 1978.

This fully revised and unified edition is scored for keyboard and string orchestra, with the solo part adaptable for clavichord, harpsichord, or piano. Minor interpretative differences — principally concerning piano dynamics — are clearly indicated in the score, allowing each instrument to be used with stylistic and expressive clarity.
