Brahms' Concerto Strategies - Analyzing his Piano Concerto no 2 op 83 - Type 5 Sonata Form

This video is a walkthrough of my analysis of the sonata form in Brahms Piano Concerto no 2 mvt 1. The movement is strongly in dialogue with the classical Type 5 (concerto form) sonata form. Topics discussed include Solo and Ritornello Interjections, Julian Horton’s book on the Concerto, and David Temperley’s article about tonic 64 chords.

I cannot say nough about the contribution of this channel to future generations to learn classical music. Yes, there are only 17 likes with 2 comments. In light of Taylor Swift's 1 bilion dollar gross revenue in her 2023 tour, classical music becomes muzeum art. But after 100 years, future generations can only cont on sits like this to re-learn music of great minds for the same reason we still read publications of Charles Rosen or Donald Fracis Tovey, etc., I remember a pianist said : I record (knowingly no more than a few hundred purchaser could consider buying the CD) is to preserve my contributions....That can be Schubert or Beethoven's mindset when they continued to create amid the ups and downs of their natural lives. As far as Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2, this is the only site offering analysis, let alone using THE best theory. 💥💥💥
