Ah yes, statistics. One possible reason why there are only violin concertos in the top 10 of pieces: let's say all concert halls do twice as many piano concertos than violin concertos. But if there are four times as many great piano concertos than violin concertos, individual piano concertos get played less than individual violin concertos (like 10 piano concertos get played three times each, but 3 violin concertos get played six times each). Four Seasons and Messiah get played a lot to cover the year's expenses, I guess ...

One was conducted by both Andris Nelson (Copland "Quiet City" and Stravinsky "Firebird") and John Williams conducting the World Premiere of his Violin Concerto No. 2 that was composed for and performed by Anne-Sophie Mutter, and another concert was a performance by #2 on the soloist list Joshua Bell who played Beethoven's Violin Concerto. The third concert was a "standard" concert. It was performed by the Tanglewood Fellows who had studied at Tanglewood that summer.

It was like listening to it for the first time. Brett and Eddy, if you are bored with it, try this one. THAT"S how it should be played.

I find it ironic that in the same video they praise Tchaikovsky for his melodicism and basically poo-poo on Vivaldi. Sure, Tchaikovsky was an excellent melodicist... for the Romantic era, when melody itself wasn't considered all that important or even necessary part of serious music. Vivaldi though, he breathed and lived melody, many Baroque masters did, it was their bread and butter. And here is why centuries later they are still among the most played composers and I reckon they still will be centuries later, whether many classical snobs like it or not.

I feel like the reason it's violin concertos that are up there is that violin is that perfect sweet spot of being a very very VERY popular instrument that has a *huge tradition of standard repertoire*. Most professional violinists I know have all "gone through the ranks" and played the same set of the popular concertos just to "have them", versus piano (which is technically more played as an instrument?) I feel emphasizes less of that tradition. There are definitely popular concertos, but you're more likely picking from a wider range as you choose your path/style as a pianist.

Today was a great day :) .. - TwoSet posted a new video - My favourite streamer who normally listens to pop music or rap decided to go for a bit of Rachmaninov and Debussy instead - I'm going to make some bubble tea - and I bought my first Twoset apparel that just came back in stock in my size - also I now have 69 practice points :D

Eddy: "have you noticed that there's three violin concertos?" Closed captions: "have you noticed that there's three violent consumers?"

Very interesting! Haven't listened to a lot of Brahms, maybe something to consider.. Didn't really 'get' his Violin concerto until I listened to Leonidas Kavakos play it with Gergiev Valery Abisalovich and a wonderful orchestra from Munich, I think, - it was like an eureka-moment ⭐ Here's something beautiful (and very true) said by F Chopin that I recently found on the vast prairies of the Internet: "Bach is an astronomer, discovering the most marvellous stars. Beethoven challenges the universe. I only try to express the soul and the heart of man."

I recall seeing some stats on pieces played versus composed and Wagner blew everyone out of the water with how popular all of his compositions were.

From my personal experience the piece I’ve listened to most in a concert is Brahms 2: BSO, CSO and AWO with Zubin Mehta.

i’m at a performing arts school. they decided that the first performance they had in two years would be of shostakovich’s fifth symphony, which was challenging but not unbearable. they decided that the next one would be mahler’s fifth symphony, which is VASTLY different from shos's

Once again thank you for introducing us(or just me) to new pieces, but I wonder what's the third violin concerto in the top 10 list apart from Mendelssohn and Tchaikovasky? But hey, if Eddy is looking for something to practice, I think no one would say no for an encore at the 4M Mendy drop right? How about some Paganini?

you should listen to dmitri sinkovsky's version of Vivaldi's four seasons, it's phenomenal. I didn't use to listen to four seasons but then my conductor recommended this one when we played it in my orchestra and he did not disappoint, really warmly recommend it, it really changed my view of it!

I love this kind of videos. Because you tell things I didnt know even if I love classical music. Especially of course ”the romantic period” which I think are pretty easy for a musically non educated person like me. But Thanks to another youtuber I come to appreciate Debussys ”Sunken cathedral” youtube can be fantastic open new worlds.
