Question

what is the most evident difference between the two concertos?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two kinds of concerto that were composed in the Baroque period: concerto grosso and solo concerto. This link will take you to a very interesting summary of the two types of concerto. Even though this site is quite concise in its written descriptions of the two genres, it is the listening examples embedded in the that page really help clarify a point that can be confusing to students the first time they encounter the concerto grosso—namely the roles of the concertino and the ripieno (also known as tutti). The examples will make it easier for you to hear the difference between the smaller and larger group that provide the contrast in a concerto grosso.

Here is one clarification to something stated near the end of the linked article: it mentions that Antonio Vivaldi, who you’ll read about soon, “wrote many solo concertos and in particular for oboe, flute, and bassoon.” This might give you the impression that the bulk of his works were for those instruments. That is not the case. He wrote over 500 concertos (solo and grosso), 350 of which were for solo instruments. The majority of those solo concertos (230) were for solo violin, which is not surprising, given that Vivaldi was a virtuoso violinist. I think they mentioned those additional instruments because there are relatively few concertos written for wind instruments so his works for those and other instruments stand out in the literature.

Solo Concerto

As we’ve looked at concerto grosso, here’s a bit more detailed information on the solo concerto. Notice that the solo concerto has a bit more standard structure (three movements in a fast-slow-fast pattern) than the concerto grosso, though we must always remember that Baroque composers were not nearly as concerned about standardization of form as later Classical Era composers were.

Concerto Grosso

Now, let’s take a more in depth look at concerto grosso. Notice the important role that Corelli plays in developing this genre into something that many other composers would want to work with, and in Corelli’s overall style no less. As with previous genres, there was, for a time, a division into chiesa and camera forms.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are two sorts of concerto that were composed in the Baroque period: concerto grosso and solo concerto.

Unlike a solo concerto where one solo instrument plays the melody line and is accompanied by the orchestra, during a concerto grosso, a little group of soloists passes the melody between themselves and the orchestra or a small ensemble.

Notice that the solo concerto features a bit more standard structure (three movements in a fast-slow-fast pattern) than the concerto grosso, though we should remember that Baroque composers were not around as concerned regarding the standardization of form as in later ages, Classical Era composers were.
