Raff Concerto!

[moose_opus_28]

Sweet mother of Czerny!  It's awesome!

Don't know this piece, he was very highly regarded during his lifetime, fogotten immediately after; I've read a couple pieces, La Fileuse and some sort of Waltz/Impromptu deal, they were pretty good; regardless of what people started to think in the 1940's (most of it way off base) there must be something in his music for it to have been so popular at one time; I'd like to hear this piece!

The romantic piano concerto volume 4 is only 10 bucks at amazon....and it's 2 cd's!  And the Raff alone would be worth it.  The last movement is so happy!  It's like a bigger version of Moszkowski.

I am definitely enjoying the first movement of the Czerny.
