Probably the "best" of the four piano conceros of Reinecke. Here, the piano enters from the beginning, not as a romantic solosit, but in close cooperation with hte orchestra. the arhitecture is as firm as always, the themes are noble and the harmony is classical but well led. A matserwork among masterworks!

The first mvt. of this concerto, written at 77, is as compelling, urgent and moving a musical expression as can be found anywhere. The implicit emotions are earth -shattering in their beauty! Powerful beyond belief yet understated by perhaps the most refined Romantic ever!

J'ai beaucoup aimé la mélodie de l'Allegro, l'Andante chante aussi, on se croirait dans un film, l'Allegretto commence fort, et là encore la mélodie se chante.. Vaillant concerto. J'ai beaucoup aimé. 🎶💓🎶

Very beautiful, and I do hear the Mendelssohn influence, which I love both of his concerti!

It IS the best.....and they're all great!

Beautiful piece and lush melodies

wonderful music

WOW! That four of his concertos you have uploaded, and I have enjoyed every one of them. Thank you!

Magnificent

This late work by Reinecke [ in his late seventies ] gives me a theme to hum with supercharged emotionalism reminiscent of a Tchaikovsky . I love the structure of the 1st mov. in the befitting key of B minor . It is both concise and effective . I would love to hear it sometime in a concert hall .

To Mr. Fadel, I wouldn't trade the intensely moving and profound 1st mvt. for Tschaikowsky's whole output!

You can just line up his four piano concertos and have yourself a very nice couple of hours.

I once had a piano roll of this, 'played' by Backhaus. I thought it was quite good, though rather In the shadow of Brahms.

Reineke Fuchsens Concertos werden mit jeder Nummer besser. 1,2 3,4...

アダージョはリストの様に悲しいです

Mammamia che degrado.... C è molta stanchezza. Fiati e percussioni sono dimenticati...
