This single “Hora staccato” is part of the album “Pastis”, re-arranged and played by Boz Trio. This song (1906) is a virtuoso violin showpiece by Grigoras Dinicu. It is a short, fast work in a Romanian hora style, and has become one of the favorite encores of violinists, especially the 1932 arrangement by Jascha Heifetz. The piece requires an exceptional command of both upbow and downbow staccato. The character of this piece also demands the notes be articulated in a crisp and clear manner so that the vibrancy of music comes out. Hora Staccato in the 6th song of the album “Pastis” that will be released in January 2023.
