At the same time, however, one should not forget that especially the Piano Concerto and the Little Suite place Ježek among the leading figures of international Modernism (Paul Hindemith, Erwin Schulhoff and others) who, in the 1920s and 1930s, strove to incorporate jazz elements into serious music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBugatti step, written in 1931 as the overture to the play Don Juan \u0026amp; Comp., thanks to its true dance character and immense virtuosity, hovers on the borderline between these two musical genres. Its title is also of interest Jezek, a great sports enthusiast, chose the title in honour of the winning French racer Louis Chiros who drove a Bugatti at the Masaryk racing circuit in Brno, and his fascination with technology is reflected in the pulsating rhythms reminiscent of a four-stroke engine, present throughout the composition constructed on fourth intervals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bärenreiter Praha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54731899733,"sku":"H3156","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/ae7d764bfd07e0bce25341d19a41bec3.jpg?v=1780395191","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/jezek-bugatti-step-praha","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
