The ´Concerto per orchestra a pizzico´ by Victor Kioulaphides´ was composed for and dedicated to the Dutch Mandolin Chamber Orchestra ´HET CONSORT conducted by Alex Timmerman. The work was composed in 2004 and is one of the larger works (±18 minutes) for plucked instruments by Kioulaphides. It is scored for 1st and 2nd mandolins, mandolas, guitars, a mandoloncello and a chitarrone moderno. The première of this delightful composition took place in the Concert hall of the Stedelijke Muziekschool in Groningen (Netherlands) on Saturday 19th of March (2005) in the presence of the composer. What is seen and heard on this video is the last movement: Rondo - Allegro spiccato Telemanniana, as performed during the première.
