What are some of your favorite concertos of all time?
A couple of mine would be Beethoven's Fifth; Rach's First, Second, and Third; Schumann's in A minor, Prokofiev's First, and Second; and also Ravel's Concerto for the left hand.

Is the title not "favorite concerto" without an 's'? Meaning only one favorite...
Mine's Chopin's #1, mostly centered around the second movement.

[nihil]

Yeah, only one concerto... but oh my it's way difficult to name only one among so many fantastic ones, don't you think?

I'll try:

Tchai #1

My current favourite... but it used to be Rach #3 and before it, Rach #2....

[L.K.]

My favourites at the moment are Ravel's left hand and Rach's 2nd.
