Piano Concerto No.1 In B Flat Minor Op.23

[PeteReDevil]

By Tchaikovsky.

feckin' ace. Could listen to it all the time.

Now, I'm not a big classics listener....anything you'd recommend?

 

[WeasteDevil]

Well, that's a big question. Is it the Piano that makes it attractive to you?

 

[PeteReDevil]

Dunno....think it's the moodiness of it. Going from being depressed to be more positive.

Don't think which instruments being highlighted is that important for me

 

[WeasteDevil]

Is this to your taste?

Poor version IMO, however gives you an idea of the tune.

 

[PeteReDevil]

Sorry about the absence.

It seems like nice morning listening, thanks.
Can't remember the name of the song Morgan Freeman listens to at home in Seven....or was it another movie? Any ideas?

I think you should listen to George Frideric Handel - "Zadok the Priest"

If Romantic era piano concertos are your thing, try any of Rachmaninov's 4 piano conertos, especially 2 and 3. Schumann's piano concerto is also great, as are Chopin's two piano concertos and that of Grieg.

Or you could try Tchaikovsky's symphonies - the Pathetique is a good one to start with, or his Swan Lake...
