Hey classical fam, I just realized i uploaded the not fully edited video . I apologize 🙏🏾. Well this is how I record my reactions and try to find my words lol

Whoever requested this has great taste :)

I've never seen a reaction video to classical music, it's super cool!

This has to be in my top 3 piano concertos. I also listen to the 2nd movement by itself if I need some gloomy romanticism in my day. Hidden gem of not only piano concertos but all classical music, maybe even all music

Moskowski is a very underrated composer. Both of his concertos are top tier, and are worth listening to.

28:42 this movement is the Scherzo of the piece, Scherzo literally meaning joke in Italian. That’s why it’s so playful.

Haven't even watched the video yet but HOLY MOLY IT IS SO COOL that I had just discovered this Piano Concerto A few months ago but there was a reaction video to it all along?!

So you may not know this, but this piece was once the most popular piano concerto in the world.

I LOVE Moszkowski's Piano Concerto! Such a hidden gem 💜

Oh my this is my fav concerto. Seeing you listen so intently got me weirdly emotional. Thank you!

You don’t know the absolute JOY i felt when I saw this pop up on my feed..i only discovered this masterpiece a month ago and I still listen to it as if it was my first time. The second movement for me is the epitome of romance, it makes me swoon. So glad you get to experience the same thing. :)

Most underrated piano concerto. E major is my favorite key by a longshot but it's so rare to hear it used and Moszkowski does is beautifully.

wow i cant beleave someone react to moszkowski, im so happy! I love this concerto, its my favorite! recently the concerto no.1 op.3 from Moszkowski was rediscover in 2012 i think, the 2nd and final 4th movement its glorious. I hope u can hear it too!!

IM SO GLAD YOU CHOSE THIS FINALLY. THIS WAS MY INTRODUCTION TO CLASSICAL MUSIC AND BACK IN THE DAY WHEN I FIRST HEARD IT I CRIED. HIDDEN GEM, TALENTED COMPOSER AND BEAUTIFUL PIECE. THANK YOU

One of my favorites of all piano concertos, and to think it lay in obscurity for 100 years before its premier! Moszkowski, like many others without the big name recognition of a Beethoven, Brahms, or Mozart are relegated to languish in anonymity, ignored in favor of playing the same old better known pieces because they are "popular." Thank you for introducing Moszkowski to a new audience. I know it means nothing to him, personally, but it means a lot to music lovers such as myself.

Imo the best hidden gem of any concerto

YES this is one of my favourite concertos! So glad you have reacted to it!

I actually never listened to this, never even know it existed. Moszkowski is famous for his short pieces, his etudes like Etincelles (Sparkles) and they are often played as encores. The rest is almost forgotten it seems. There are so many great piano concertos out there, oh man, and almost every great composer gave us one or more. Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Dvorak, Grieg, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Ravel, Prokofiev, Saint-Saëns, Gershwin, you name it. Now let me enjoy the Moszkowski!

I am a student majoring in music composition in Korea. Moritz Moschkovsky is too underrated composer. I hope many people will listen to his songs. When I first heard this song, I only listened to two movements, but now I listen to all of them once a day. It's the best concerto I've ever heard.

This is literally my favorite piece ever!

I find your sweatshirt to be an iconic Gidi look!

Ahhh,My old Recomendation, Finally You react to it,thanks

My god this was so goooddd...never heard of the composer or the piece! Really glad to be finding these gems through the channel. This was great

This piano concerto is a true gem, so underated

The main melody is extra Romantic I love it

One unknown AMAZING concerto: Hannikainen piano concerto in B-Flat Minor.

I must say, the work doing on this channel is fabulous. Its about time classical music has its 21st century renaissance, and your mode of presenting it in this podcast fashion really does help to bridge the gap to promote it to a larger audience. I have had a similar problem of trying to explain classical music to my non-musical friends and always wondered how to do it. this channel is just about right in the way that it does it. keep up the work my guy 🤜🤛

Moszkowiski is truly an underrated composer.

I don't know this composer or this piece. It's definitely very attractive, and reminiscent of Chopin, Schumann, Saint-Saens, and Rachmaninov.

My absolute favourite piano concerto.... Good taste. 🤩🤩🤩🤩 This piano concerto needs so string fingers, wrists and a huge finger velocity

The first movement is amazing

I first became hooked on the Moszkowski Concerto about 50 years ago, when I was 20. My addiction continues to today, and I still consider it to be my favorite piece for piano and orchestra, despite having played virtually all the major piano concerti in the repertoire (I'm a professional orchestral musician, so I've played and heard a LOT of music). Unfortunately, I've never even heard the Moszkowski live; it's just not quite popular enough to have entered the "mainstream" of concert repertoire. Concert audiences only want to hear Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, and Rachmaninov. Not that there's anything wrong with those pieces, but it's nice to vary one's concert diet every once in a while. This recording is indeed very good (and adding the score to read along is certainly a plus) but I would suggest you check out the Michael Ponti recording. He was a pianist who was known for tackling all the Romantic pieces that, at the time (1960s-70s), nobody else would play. His version of this piece is nothing short of electrifying. He playing many sections at a hair-raising velocity that's truly amazing, and with great POWER.

OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS CONCERTO SO MUCH

Moszkowski also wrote a violin concerto 👀

One of the most beautiful concertos I've heard. Post romantic, the end of XIX century I believe

Wow, a big thank-you to whoever recommended this one to you! One of my all-time favourite piano concertos! As you said, every movement is so strong and the whole piece is so packed with ideas that you don't even notice the time passing. Personally, my favourite recording is by David Bar-Illan because of the flow and sense of forward motion (despite some moments of questionable ensemble with the orchestra, but there's always a trade-off, I suppose).

I always knew this concerto existed, but as with many pieces of lesser-known composers, it is kinda tough to get into for me. When you get into it you learn to love it though. I'm currently 5 minutes into it on my first proper listen, discovering it with you and am shocked it is not more popular. This already is one of my favorites.

Seeing your joy in reaction to this piece brings me joy. Such a beautiful work, this concerto!

Absolutely adore this concerto

This concerto is sooooo underated , it was such a good surprise to discover it

You should react to his violin concerto

I have bought the score of this great concert and I shall give it to Alexander Malofeev when he performs in Amsterdam Jan. 13th. 2024. He will love this concert and maybe he and an orchestra will bring it back to Music Halls over this world. 🌷🌷🌷🎹🎵🎶♥

First time hearing this concerto. It was amazing. Thank you.

A thousand thanks for the introduction to this splendid work. Your heartfelt appreciation and affection are evident...and contagious. (It's his birthday anniversary today.)

Thankyou ! Thankyou for highlighting this concerto ! And especially taking the trouble to show the 2 piano core ! I'm so glad this channel exists ! When I was about ten my teacher had her best student plaMoskowsky's En Automne .It is still a favorite of mine and I can play it still. And later I heardJosef Hofmann play Guitarre and then the great famous Spanish Rhapsody in 1937 on a really famous to pianists Curtis recital recorded we are all so lucky . Noone sounds like Hofmann ,not Lhevinne in all his perfection or even Rachmaninoff not even Horowitz had his total knowhow and guess what Hofmann studied not only with Anton Rubinstein in Berlin but as a youngster he studied with this same chestnut composer who at the turn of the century knew many of his pieces were always on every student and professional musician's programmes . I discovered this concerto in the early 2000's when Naxos and a few other newer labels started putting out forgotten Romantic era concertos . Check out Kalkbrenner and especially Scharwenka last 2 concrti 3 and the No.4 which used to be played all the time and be sure to hear Hofmann make the 4th Rubinstein concerto come alive as noone has (it's been recorded at least 6 maybe 7 timesMichaelPonti,Lowenthtal,Triconfonti the Italian pianist now specializing in Rubinstein's music ! ) but noone gives it the magic it needs but Hofmann . It doesn't even sound like the same music with he and the great Fritz Reiner ! There is a lot of other Moskowsky worth hearing the Entincelles from the op.71? Etudes (Ilana Veredrecorded all of these; such a fantastic musician with a great left hand ) and so much else. Also Moscheles was a good friend of Chopin and wrote some of the most charming music ever for the salon amateur virtuoso .

I really love it

If you haven't heard Anton Rubinstein's Piano Concerto No. 4 in Dm or Charles Villiers Stanford's Piano Concerto No. 2 in Cm, then you are in for a treat or two, friend.

so glad you enjoyed that gem!

First time seeing your channel and that opening Tchaikovsky remix is fire! hahaha also Moszkowski is extremely underrated I am so glad you made this video! Cheers~👌

Thank you for bringing attention to this gem. I see it as a light, dreamy alternative to Rach 2 & 3 and Brahms 1 & 2 (same difficulty as well... pretty incredible). It's one of those relatively (not in common repertoire) underground concertos that actually works... I don't think there's many of them that deserve a full audience and doubt that there's any other at this level (not sure if you could count Scriabin's, though...).

I highly recommend his phantasy quintet many dont know of it but it is a absolute beauty and journey to listen to. It also is one of the best out there. At first listen it can be very sudden so go in with a open mind (if you do react/listen)

subbed bro great video :D it's as if we are in a room listening to this together

If you like this lovely concerto, try the three piano concertos of Bortkiewicz which are also sadly underrated

Moszkowski’s name is pronounced like “mosh-kov-ski” 😉

Quite playful to start off with… let’s see how it develops!

Check out the phenomenal piano concerto of Busoni, the longest one written, with a chorus in the finale! A one -off showstopper!

I like the faster version

Have you heard/reacted to Bach’a Chaconne in D Minor? It’s the fifth movement from his second partita for solo violin. Brahms once said something to the effect that if he was able to compose something as good as the chaconne, he would surely drive himself mad. My personal favourite is the Itzhak Perlman recording. Love what you’re doing, also.

I highly suggest potolovsky's cello sonata no 2

Listen to Durufle requiem, amazing piece

Have you listen to Adagio for string by Barber yet? Its a must

min. 23:52

Try Scriabin symphony no.1, it’s also an amazing piece

You have to listen to Saint Saens' piano concertos and The Carnival of animals. Maybe Tchaikovsky 's Italian Capriccio with his second piano concerto you'd like too

I recommend you to listen to Volodos’ transcription of Liszts Hungarian Rhapsody No.2😊

Круто❤

yo you should listen to kasputin concert etudes, if you want to hear a classical jazz mix its fire

If you ever get a chance, take a listen to Henryk Wars Piano Concerto from 1950, theres a great recording on collectionCB2 on youtube. While there's no sheet music, and probably won't make amazing content, its sure to be a good listen.

Reaction Alexandre Kantorow plays Brahms 2 concerto in tchaikovsky competition

Sir, if you enjoyed this excellent concerti by Moszkowski I think you'll be delighted with Sergei Bortkiewicz's Piano Concerto #1 as well ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qchypa6S09WXaGg.html

Curious

Rachmaninov stile.

он мотает головой в скерцо по пол такта, хотя мысль и гармонический пульс Мошковского длиннее

You are looking for not so good classical music or music you might not like? Try these: Chopin ballade no 1 in G minor Schumann Arabesque in C L'île joyeuse by Debussy. Ginastera sonata for piano no 1 Kapustin sonata 1 or 2 Ginastera concerto 1 Good luck! 😅

Too many basic scales and arpeggios. Too much repetition of patterns and sequences. The great composers don’t just use passage work mindlessly there is an emphasis on thematic construction and development of ideas. Even the passage work is developed in interesting ways by the masters. Harmonic rhythm, etc is very predictable etc. Theme construction is also very predictable with symmetrical repetitions and lacking in originality or motives that develop melodically. Maybe others don’t hear these problems but that stand out as obvious weaknesses in his writing to myself.
