Part 3 of the short series where I share cool piano concerti I love.
For this part, I picked some older recordings so naturally the sound quality isn't as sharp. I do still believe them to be very good though!
Subtitles coming soon!
0:00 J.S.Bach: Keyboard Concerto No. 1 in D minor, I: Allegro (György Sebök)
1:23 Maurice Ravel: Piano Concerto in G, II: Adagio assai (Marguerite Long)
2:27 Francis Poulenc: Piano Concerto, I: Allegretto (Annette Haas, mistakenly written as M. Haas in the video, oops)
3:26 Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Concerto No. 3 in C, III: Allegro ma non troppo (Emil Gilels)

One of, if not the best, slow movement from any piano concerto!

@@ThomasRamsay_Music it is truly a great mix of romanticism and impressionism

I was going to pick Brandenburg 5, but then I realised that I could get away with it more if I picked the keyboard concerto 😃

I love Poulenc. I think he is my favorite chamber music composer for woodwinds. He never misses a beat with his sonatas and his trios. Just an absolute legend. He has such an iconic and unique style. Also, I still don't understand how any human being can play Prokofiev's last two concertos. But they both are absolutely stunning. I used to only like the fast part of the third, but I grew to love both of them. Prokofiev is such a unique composer.

I love Poulenc's chamber music- particularly the Clarinet Sonata- as It is all so wonderfully written & emotionally rich, but it couldn't't have been written by anyone else. The last two concerti by Prokofiev are weird- I currently lean more to No. 4, but I still need time to understand them better. Still really great works!

great list, I like the slower bach d minor. The harmony stands out more

I liked it a lot as well- for me, I don't think I could pick between a fast and a slow one. I like the excitement that a faster performance brings, but, as you pointed out, a slower tempo really brings out the harmony & counterpoint!
