Saint Saens concerto 2. Hmmm.
on: October 27, 2004, 12:39:06 AM
It is a great concerto, but don't you find the 3rd movement doens't have close to the musical worth of the other 2?  It sucks because the 3rd is the last part the audience hears and, well frankly it kind of sucks (for me.) I really like the 1st mvt and 2nd mvt they are incredible.  Unlike Scriabin's concerto where the 2nd and 3rd are the superior movements, although 1 is alright too.

Saint Saens 2 g minor is a great concerto but the third movment lacks completion. Don't you thinK?

alot of concertoes are this way. one or two of the movements are unbelievable, but that one movement falls short.
