Thank you Thalbergmad. Hummel just plain kicks @$$, period. I'm baffled as to why his music is not played more, his piano concerti are easily on par with the Chopin concerti, and many others.

I'm baffled why a lot of concerto's are neglected.

I guess recording a Hummel Concerto would not make much money, whilst the 15,000,000th recording of a Beethoven Concerto would.

Beats the crap out of me.
