If only he had lived longer... what a genius this goes quite beyond what I ever heard him do before.

[@ArchieCastle]

so true... : (

[@Amourtendresse]

Fantastique, fabuleusement beau, on est saisi dès le début 🙏🎶💓🎶✨

[@Ernesto7608]

I heard this concert for the first time in my long life. Hurrah! Another composition by Mendelssohn to love.

[@zvikrol5220]

Better then his 2 other piano concerts with no reason beautifull❤❤❤❤❤

[@moltzer]

This concerto is truly marvelous.

[@agent-sz2qj]

I'm discovering more and more great musical works of Mendelssohn and he recently became one of my favorite composers.

[@reinhardstroh1437]

Mine too.

[@shin-i-chikozima]

The wonderfulness and mental comfort of Mendelssohn‘s piano works is far superior splendor amazing, and unfathomable

[@karrotkake]

what an underrated concerto

[@elmiramuradova561]

Браво! ❤Bravo! All his concertos are grandious.

[@willwyche2064]

This is the first time in my 70 years of loving Felix Mendelssohn that I've become aware of this reconstructed work of such awesome and breathtaking beauty! Having held sway over both the other two piano concerti before I became cursed with severe peripheral neuropathy, the frustration in my inability to attempt additional supremacy over this aesthetic is titanic! Fault the regeneration as bombastic or even Brahmsian, one cannot fail to identify the Mendelssohnian spirit, style and temperament throughout this masterpiece. Thank you so much, Archie Castle, for opening my aging ears to this bountiful and thrilling (re)creation!

[@willwyche2064]

@@ArchieCastle Notwithstanding both the physical pain and mental anguish consequential to this incurable disease that numbs and swells both my hands and feet, I may just indulge myself with the $45.50 purchase of the reconstructed score. I hope such action will allow me to follow along with the idiosyncratic beauty of this great composer's creation and not make me think too much of what could have been.

with such a love for Mendellsohn you may be interested also in his unfinished 6th symphony: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2HHd5hoo6ehldU ...

Such a beautiful comment. It’s three years later and I hope you’ve found peace.

With your love to Mendelssohn I hope I can share wirh you the Unfinished 6th symphony by Mendelssohn: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bITOpYd4gM-JZ5Isi=6eFoCeh3p1fswaOI

[@divox9pqr]

Defies words, so much beauty of inspiration of melodic lines. One would love the third movement to go on a few more pages/minutes, but the bright spirited effervescence is a wonder conclusion to the austere first movement.

[@mrbrianmccarthy]

The first two movements are better than any of his other Piano concerto movements. The 3rd mvt is disappointing, but it was never finished by felix, so my guess is that is why its so inferior to the first 2. BTW---this concerto was dropped and parts of it were mined and used in the violin concerto(Which was also in E minor)

[@ArchieCastle]

Agree with you on your assessment.

[@parcivalg.5659]

Partendo dalle sue idee è già Bello così ma che peccato, se l'avesse completato lui sarebbe stato meraviglioso. Chissà quali altre meraviglie melodiche e armoniche avremmo potuto ascoltare in questo stesso concerto. Non lo sapremo mai. Va bene lo stesso, Mendelsshon ci ha dato tante perle musicali. Grazie.

[@allegrorisoluto3728]

Such an enchanting concerto..

[@gprengel]

One of my favourite piano concertos - especially the final part of the first movement is breathtaking! But please tell me, where does the last movement come from? Mendelssohn didn't sketch a 3rd movement. Is it adapted from some chamber music work by him?

[@loivo5707]

Agreed, the first movement is wonderful! Mendelssohn actually did sketch a 3rd movement, but just a few bars of two of the themes. imslp.org/wiki/Piano_Concerto_in_E_minor%2C_MWV_O_13_(Mendelssohn%2C_Felix)

I have the full score of Bufalini version, currently using musescore 4 to simulate the orchestral part so it can become a music minus one. Seriously this piece need to get more exposure

[@ArchieCastle]

so true

11:51 the part is so beautiful 💕

[@Lydianos]

Greetings! This piece is exquisite! Does anybody know where could I find and buy this arrangement? I really can't find a clue online and I want to perform it for my piano exams. Thank you @Archie Castle for this upload!

[@your_crazy_lazy_pianist]

Άργησα 😛 αλλά εν πάση περιπτώσει έχει παρτιτούρα στο IMSLP, όπου μπορείς να το κατεβάσεις δωρεάν. Δεν ξέρω βέβαια αν θα μπορούσε γενικά να παιχτεί σε εξετάσεις, γιατί ο Μέντελσον δεν ολοκλήρωσε το έργο. imslp.org/wiki/Piano_Concerto_in_E_minor%2C_MWV_O_13_(Mendelssohn%2C_Felix) (πατάς κάποιο από τα 3 αρχεία που έχει εδώ και το κατεβάζεις)

[@Lydianos]

@@your_crazy_lazy_pianist Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ! Το έψαξε ναι, δε γίνεται να παιχτεί σε εξετάσεις όντως.

[@ArchieCastle]

welcome

[@DavidA-ps1qr]

I think Mendelssohn was having difficulties with this work, which is why he abandoned it. However, it's novelty value with this resurrection makes great listening.

[@putraswarga608]

Wow!

[@benjaminpuric7981]

thanks Archie Castle!!!

[@smirnoff6619]

Beautiful concerto! Does anyone know where i can find sheets? I only found sheets that were written by Mendelssohn himself but couldn't find any completed by Bufalini.

[@skylexboldt228]

The most underrated composer of all time!!!! Damn Nazis and Richard Wagner "jewed" him over. (I mean that in the most non-obscene way possible.) Anyway, thank you times infinity for uploading this majestic piano concerto! The imagery it evokes in the first movement involves him slaying Satan ~ having to play the game of life in which to attain such a victory. The second movement evokes imagery of ballroom dancing in God's Holy Palace; as consequential of having slayed Satan. Ooooh sweet victory at last! (At least for now, that is...)

Find his Gm concerto, composed at the advanced age of 13 years old.

@@ArchieCastle This concerto really takes me somewhere else - so beautiful... I don't think 'too Brahmsian' is at all a criticism and it's a shame Mendelssohn clearly thought so!

[@ArchieCastle]

​@@billyfisher1539 Quite so!

[@skylexboldt228]

Mendelssohn is a top tier composer of all time, in my opinion! It's unfortunate he has been misconstrued to the degree he has been.

[@slothostpUL]

Can you imagine if Herr Bruckner would have conceived of a piano concerto? After the first performance, put that poor piano into the recycle pit.

[@Alix777.]

Not any concerto in major key :(

[@karrotkake]

by mendelssohn or by any composer?
