Soy enamorado de la musica clasica, diria un adepto y un adicto: En lo personal Karl Maria von Weber fue un gran compositor: "La invitacion a la danza" (Auforderung zum tanz" es una pieza magistral. La tragedia de von Weber, si se le puede llamar asi, es haber sido contemporaneo de Beethoven, quien lo opaco. Gracias por ese bello concierto.

It is so beautiful to hear the notes dripping on the keys that I feel satisfied, fulfilled, happy, cheerful, optimistic. My God: Heaven exists in the music of Carl Maria Von Weber. Many thanks: Peter Rösel.

[@phuclevan5771]

I like Von Weber.

[@leoinsf]

Weber was actually a great composer who is somewhat overlooked. In my youth I ploughed through his "Perpetuum Mobile" and learned how well he wrote virtuosic music. As an operatic composer, his instrumental music is a bit operatic. He must have been a great pianist because his piano music is outstanding and writes comfortably for piano.

[@GavinBorchert-z1m]

He was acknowledged in his time as one of the greatest pianists of the day.

[@romansedlacek5616]

Super

[@alexb54]

After listening to this concerto sporadically for years, I still get chills in the third movement when the melody first introduced by solo flute comes back on the oboe and then the piano plays the main melody to accompany it. This happens around 19:11. Such a magical moment in this piece!

[@webercarlmariavon9138]

[@janeyre82]

Totally agree

[@sammelson1]

Whenever you see Weber and Concerto in the same title you're usually on to something good. His Clarinet Concertos are another good witness to his great creativity. His music was once considered by many to be no more than a relic of thee early Romantic period. The explosion of classical recordings in the last few years is opening a few eyes to what was once labeled a little too quaint for the trouble of listening/performing.

[@EyalRonen11]

magnificent

[@Midoriventure]

Everyone mentioning any specific part of the music goes on about the adiago or points to moments in the finale, but y'all are sleeping on the allegro. It's my favorite part of this whole piece. How can anyone be deaf to the piano in it? How does no one feel the emotion? The gaiety and hope, things hazarded and finished, the ongoing saga that enhances the orchestra when it returns, which further enhances the piano now delicate, asking, gentle...then so emotional, the denial, the explanation, the return of liveliness so pretty but colored by heartbreak, normalcy before venturing to descend and rise again, worse and more rending than before, different and the same, the orchestra helping this time. Does the allegro not hold anyone else? It has everything, both the quiet solemnity and spirited brightness divided between the other two movements. It suits the finale better than the finale does for combining those two. It's wonderful.

ein nicht ganz unbekannter pianist, der das gesamte werk webers gespielt hat, sagte mir einmal, dass weber so wenig gespielt wird, liegt daran, dass er recht schwierig zu spielen ist, aber der zuhoerer, dies nicht so wahrnimmt, wie etwa bei chopin und anderen romantischen musiken. er spielte mit vorliebe das konzertstueck in f. dem eingeweihten wird wohl jetzt klar sein, welchen pianisten ich meine

[@EnzoArcheryMaster]

UN GRANDE GENIO

[@larrypeery9913]

It takes a good pianist to appreciate just how difficult it is to play this well. It's a piece that is out of reach, so to speak, for most piano players --- even the best. That might explain why there are so few videos on here of it.

There is a reason why Weber and Hummel were discarded after a certain point. They had some great ideas, but their music doesn't come together as a whole well. The compositions of transitional composers tend to feel incomplete, and I agree there is a lack of profound here.
