Wagner’s Universe in a Pianist’s Hands

One of the most thrilling performances offered at Cremona Musica this year was the Wagner by Liszt recital given by Filippo Tenisci – Italian pianist, born 1998 and celebrated for his refined interpretations and expressive mastery of the Romantic repertoire. After his recital we got the chance talking to Tenici about his Wagner/Liszt project. Read more

I really prefer his Hummerklavier.

Is that the motorised version of the hammered cavalier?

Gottschalk sonatas


That would be marvellous!  :)

What about Gottschalk: Piano Concerto in f-minor ?  ;)

Lore says, another work of his (which exists), could have been part of it...

But: No one has found the - or a - score of the "Concerto in f minor", so the world has to be alert in case of sudden appearance, or...will have to assume: It doesn't exist. Newspapers and concert reviews from the former times also don't mention a performance of a "concerto in f" by Moreau. Addition: (which means: one which he would have composed. But he played at least movement I of the f-minor Henselt-concerto, of which the reviews (critic) were partly super, and partly "not-so-good".)

Greetings from Germany, 8_octaves  ;)
"Never be afraid to play before an artist.
The artist listens for that which is well done,
the person who knows nothing listens for the faults." (T. Carreño, quoting her 2nd teacher, Gottschalk.)

Has anyone noticed that Spanish composers did not write many piano concertos? I've love to hear a piano concerto by Albeniz or Granados. Of course, there IS De Falla's "Nights in the Gardens of Spain." It's wonderful but not quite a concerto.

Alkan - Concerto da Camera no. 18 has to be up there, though no. 15 is fantastic as well. Honestly I couldn't believe that he wrote any chamber music than no. 3 (that one's real!).

Also Chaminade - Sonata no. 5 and the Grand Duo pour Piano et Flûte.

Lastly, Price - Piano Concerto no. 3, though no. 4 is great as well.

I consider the Falla a concerto, but I understand what you mean. Have you heard the Surinach concerto? He also orchestrated parts of Albeniz Iberia (the ones Arbos didn't manage)
