It was the 68th performance ( of in total 143) which took place at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC on the 21st of February 1958. SMR performed the Concertino da Camera in France, Switzerland, Spain, Great Britain, Czeckoslovakia, Poland, Norway, Sweden, Australia, USA, Cuba, Canada, Hungary, Germany, the Netherlands, and Denmark. (over a range of time from 1935 to 1973)

      Yes! It is the Adagio and Samba (Introduction and Samba) by Maurice Whitney - available for rental through Bourne. There is also a simplified solo part that is available with piano that does not include all of the altissimo that was written for Rascher. There is a recording of Sinta playing the simplified version with band and there is also a recording of my colleague Diane Hunger playing the original solo part with the piano reduction.

    Michael! This video was AWESOME! thank you so much for sharing your knowledge - I've been doing a ton of internet searches and your vids keep coming up! I'm the CEO of a software company that helps musicians book live gigs where the audience wants to connect with the musician, where the audience values your gift and perspective as a true artist. It’s about monetizing on your passion & skipping the phase of booking rinse & repeat soul-crushing gigs you only play to make ends meet. Would love to connect and set up a time to meet virtually for coffee if youre up for it! LMK!
