Actually all of his one-keyboard concertos are transcriptions.

Thanks for the BWV-been wondering which one everyone’s been talking about .

[nope]

I luv Bartók 1 & 2.

[casparvos]

Rach 1-2-3 are the most beautifull for me!

[krittyot]

Beethoven’s choice would be moz pc no.20

@casparvos

Rach 1-2-3 are the most beautifull for me!

rock 4 alzo i think

[casparvos]

Rach 4 is also great, but for me not as great as 1,2,3. But that´s perhaps because i listen 1,2,3 much more. Rach 4 is underestimate.

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.

I like your list. Gives hope to the survival of ‘Classical’ music

[casparvos]

it´s so hard to make a choice! Actually, I like to many concertos.

[cziffra]

beethoven 4 will always do it for me
and prok 3
and even hummel a minor.
