Kurt Atterberg - Piano Concerto (1935) (Full Score)

[@AdamMusicWorld]

31:04 Atterberg was a cellist and always wrote the most fun cello parts in his orchestral scores! This piece and his 3rd symphony have some great solo/ soli sections.

[@esperantofeig]

And all this is in the autograph of the composer. Crazy.

[@FreakieFan]

Really, this was his handwriting? Surely this is a final, engraved, performance-ready version, because this is way too neat. This looks like a copyist's job to me.

[@esperantofeig]

@@FreakieFan This was his handwriting! All his later scores (after 2nd symphony?) were reproductions of his autograph.

[@FreakieFan]

@@esperantofeig But surely not composition drafts right? There's not a speck to be found on the entire score.

[@esperantofeig]

@@FreakieFan I have seen his sketches, including the manuscript of the opera Aladdin, and they are not far from this...!

[@FreakieFan]

@@esperantofeig Wow, that's impressive. Thanks for the info!

THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS. I LOVE YOU.

Whoever engraved this did an amazing job

[@DemirSezer]

Atterberg himself!

[@alexandrianova6298]

Welp...that's the sound of true glory in piano form if I've ever heard it. I especially love the mystical, mysterious peekaboo hideaway of the piano melody around 2:39 egged on by the hushed and sneaky conspiring strings.

amazing climax

[@ilyapetoushkoff8362]

It's kind of unbelievable that in both records available on KZbin pianists deliberately ignore the 2/8 - 3/8 - 3/8 rhythmic pattern of Andante's secondary theme (18:56 bar 66 onwards) and play something like 3/4 instead of what's actually written in the score.

[@bomcabedal]

From memory so not sure: Franklin Smith does take it, doesn't he?

[@ilyapetoushkoff8362]

@@bomcabedal Didn't manage to find that one but the 2014 recording by Ladislav Doležel and Masaryk University orchestra which now comes up in the search results and he gets that correctly!

[@ilyapetoushkoff8362]

(unfortunately that recoding is far from great in many other aspects)

[@bomcabedal]

@@ilyapetoushkoff8362 Including the piano, which is kindasorta relevant in a piano concerto.

[@evb7125]

Does somebody know what the year this recording from?

[@ImWalde]

1981. First full recording of the piece I think (Atterberg has a recording of the 1st movement)

[@evb7125]

@@ImWalde Thanks a lot

[@DemirSezer]

@@ImWalde where can I find atterbergs recording?

[@BenjiOrthopedic]

Sten Frykberg....no relation to Stan Freberg, who I'm sure would've been amazed that someone else had a name so similar to his own!

There’s absolutely nothing redeeming about this work. It’s like a cat got excited & walked all over the keyboard. It’s really a terrible piece. No wonder no major concert pianist or conductor promotes or plays it. It’s pure garbage. Look at where his contemporaries were in the thirties. 👎

Are you deaf?

[@StefanFourie903]

Did you really have to comment? This piece is amazing!
