Favourite Piano Concerto

I happened to think dat da 2nd movment of da 2nd :chop: PC iz da most beautiful use of orchestration + piano to create a most desirable effect.

Gruff

Haha, da chopet concertos are beautiful, but quite shitty in da orchestration department - da 1st mov of 2nd conc is superb when played in chamber version.

Randomly, I have to say, I dunno like concertos much.
Some favorites: both Ravel concertos, and Bach concertos (f minor being da benchmark), Prok 2,3, or any of them.

atm Villa Lobos pc1 8)

-da Meph

HAHAHAHAHAHA. grab a tampon. Sheeyat.

I still stand by my word and hate on those who think the Chop concerti are shitty. The musical content in them is phenomenal, regardless of “uncreative orchestration” or shit like that.

atm: bort 2, bra 1, chop 2. tru

DA HOG played Rach 1? woah. what’s the recording, brew?

Janiz does it for me, not too hot abt :rock: but it’s got massive charm.

I pozted all da HOG concerti I had like 2 weekz ago. check da linkz shuld still be good. for da jANUZ I like the rca better than mercury. randomly.

My favourite concertos are (without any particular order):

OF THE WELL KNOWN:

*Grieg, Schumann, Tchaikovsky (1st and 2nd). I don’t like Rachmaninovs concertos but if I have to mention one I think the first one is “pretty good”.

OF THE LESSER KNOWNS:

  • Adolf Von Henselt - no1 in f-minor
    This is how the Chopin should have sounded like with big orchestra.
    Henselt’s concerto is the perfect mixture of german and russianschool.

  • Eugen d’Albert no 1 and 2
    Both of his concertos are very well crafted and sound like Brahms and
    Liszt combined. Love it!

  • Busoni’s in C-major
    So big, so many cool riffs. Like a symphony!

  • Anton Rubenstein - No 4 in d-minor
    Perhaps the most underrated concerto ever. Sounds like a Russian
    Schumann

  • Scriabin’s in f-sharp minor op.20
    Also underrated, very lyrical and chamberlike dark-Chopin on steoroids!

  • Moritz Moszkowski - Piano Concerto in E major, op 59
    Maybe not to profound but one of the most lyrical and beautiful salon-
    pieces ever composed.

Perz da Rach 1,2,3, Brahms 1-2.

Runners up include Schumann, Beethoven, Barber, and Prok 2
