Related to ameliaw's thread about your 1st concerto, this thread is for the concerto that you have most recently learned and/or performed. If you have not yet learned/played a concerto, please post in the other thread.  I'll go first: I most recently re-learned Rachmaninoff's 2nd piano concerto for a competition this summer. Josh  |

I competed with Tchaikovsky 1 during the school year, but I'm planning on two easier works to finish in the same amount of time this year. Rhapsody in Blue and the Ravel G Major.

Well... I was working on Rachmaninoffs 2nd concerto earlier this summer, focusing on the first movement though but learned most of the 2nd movement too. After that, I started learning Ravels left-hand concerto which is almost memorized but which I had to put aside since I have to have a onehour+ program ready for a competition in Rome in October, so I'll continue the Ravel concerto after that. and then hopefully enter the schools concerto competition around februar next year  |

it is a chinese piece written to depict the 2nd world war with japan... maybe as an absolute concerto, it's just a flourish of fast notes and thundering octaves. But if you do understand the background and circumstances where it is written, it is actually a very touching piece of music.... |

Either he is crazy, or he is not doing a satisfactory job on it. Or maybe both. Or maybe he is completely capable of it. Who knows? Until we hear a recording, that is.

Hey, Thanks! (I thought nobody cared ) It is very long, so I suspect people didn't want to take that much time to listen, which is understandable. (Would you mind terribly posting your comment on the thread in Audition Room? ) Teresa |

At the moment, playing Ravel's Concerto for piano in E major. I'm still a bit tentative, so it's going slower than my usual speed.
