Doug Bower -- Magnificent Ending....and as u say, Too Soon! I rank it with the Finales of Berlioz Requiem, Bruckner's 4th, Tannhäuser & Cherevichki!

@@steveegallo3384 Now you went and done it. I got to listen to it again and I will have to listen to the ending twice.

You are right Doug - magnificent ending.

Fellah fellahs-listen up! The song "Shangrila", by 70s mega-group E.L.O., has one of the greatest endings in all music! And I should know-my dog Trevor gave a loud "woof" just as it finished! That's good enough for me! But beware-at around the 3'47" mark, the song fades away to almost nothing, and you might think it's over, and go to turn it off whilst scratching your head and thinking, "where was the great bloody ending? I've a good mind to tell that twit Schultz what a musical ignoramus he is!". BACK. AWAY. FROM. THE. COMMENTS. SECTION!! Coz gradually, the music returns, and a powerful crescendo of sheer magnificence transports the listener to heights of ecstasy-or if you're really lucky, to the fridge to get yourself a groggitybobz to calm your shattered & blown mind!!

Caramiello e D'Avalos.

Martucci was indeed well-known as both a pianist and composer in his own day even though he was the rare breed of Italian who composed no operas. His claim to fame was his other piano concerto in B-flat minor: he considered this one a student work. The B-flat minor work entered the active repertory until some time after Martucci's death: it was on the program under another pianist for Gustav Mahler's final New York concert!

Doug , I have just started to listen to this work on you tube . Reading your comments, I am yearning for the ending,though the piano has not yet made an entry. ..

+Alvaro Munoz-joy There you go again, criticizing without knowing the person you are attacking. Please read my reply to your earlier comments regarding one of my postings. Su negativismo no me importa ni un comino.

+Alvaro Munoz-joy Gracias mil por sus comentarios. Señor, no me confunda, por favor, con Bryan Ho. Lo que Ud. me dice respecto a los compositores italianos, el Renacimiento y la influencia italiana en el desarrollo de una escuela de compositores alemanes ya yo lo sabía. Aun así, caballero, gracias por su misiva.

Your comment shows your immense lack of knowledge about italian composers. Improve....you desperatelly need to.

первый раз в комментох вижу русский язык спасибо каналу за такое потрясающее удовольствие слушаю все тоже в первый раз и с восхищением так много открытий благодаря ютюбу

WOW - SPELLBOUND is right! ♥♥♥♥♥♥

Indeed!

True...it's like with some Brahms....or those late Beethoven sonatas....must listen all your life just to approximate...maybe even never to caress....but....

on amazon you can find links to secondhand shops selling the 4 cd box with both pianoconcerto's and both symphonies by Martucci. And off course anywhere you can buy the Hyperion cd's in the Romantic Pianoconcerto series. The Fox Boxes with the same name might be harder to find. And search on jpc.de for cpo cd's with many unknown music.
