A.Rawsthorne - Piano Concerto No. 1 (Tozer, Bamert)

[@geoffwalker9392]

A very talented composer who deserves a more prominent place in contemporary concert programmes.

Prokofiev was clearly a huge influence on this overlooked British composer.

[@geoffwalker9392]

@@robert_john_godfrey Certainly in this piece very much but rather less in in most of his other work. This concerto, although very attractive, is not perhaps representative of Rawsthorne's main body of work such as the three symphonies and two violin concerti. They are worth getting to know.

@@geoffwalker9392 Though his 3 symphonies just represents 3 different styles lol

Thank you! The second movement is my favourite slow movement from a Piano Concerto ever. :)

Check out Olah Kalman’s passacaglia. its extremely similar and its a great piece

[@SPscorevideos]

@@thevanguardartist Thank you for the suggestion! Definitely not similar at all, but a great piece indeed! :)

[@elionthekeys]

@@SPscorevideos I was thinking about the harmonic progressions in a way

More Rawsthorne, please!

[@SeigneurReefShark]

Unfortunately, the scanned scores of Rawsthorne are very rare. I wish I could do more though.

[@SisselOnline]

@@SeigneurReefShark It will not be rare if I am able to scan those in my uni xD Still, an amazing work wwww

Excellent ! Following that through was a very uplifting experience. What a great composition.

This is a bit like Prokofiev.
