Tchaikovsky - Piano Concerto 1 (B Flat Minor)

[@patrickspiers7155]

My mother and father adored Tchaikovsky too and whenever I hear any work by the great man, I am instantly transported back to family evenings listening to him on my mother’s collection of 78’s. Wonderful times… I miss them so much but I feel that and hear them every time I hear Tchaikovsky.

[@ChristopherPettersen]

Tchaikovsky is a true genius. His ballets, symphonies, concerti and many other works are sublime. You can't fairly argue on the greatest composer of all time because, there are many composers who accomplished different but just as significant feats. Greats like Mussorgsky, Stravinsky, Ravel, Grieg, Resphigi, Mozart, Britten, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Mahler, Nielsen, Bizet, etc. If you truly love music, you love all composers and you care about the artistry and raw intellect they gave to the world of music. The Avant-Garde dissonance of Ives, the beauty of Mozart and Beethoven, the passion of Mahler, the Primitive brilliance of Stravinsky in "The Rite of Spring". No one composer should ever be ranked higher than anyone else.

[@VladimiPutin]

Excuse me sir, you're leaving out the geniuses of the baroque era, who laid the foundations for the classical & romantic eras. To be honest, as great as it is, Mozart's music was a bit of a step down from that of his baroque predecessors. Hotteterre, Porpora, Zelenka, Rameau, Telemann, but most importantly BACH. How could you leave out a man who wrote 15 fugues and 4 cannons using a single theme?!? The crab cannon alone should earn him a spot on your list. Also, just as a PSA if you think baroque music is boring, you're probably listening to a recording that trills from the bottom note and uses vibrato for more than just an ornament, which ain't right. Although there was no standard pitch during the baroque era, recordings at A=415 Hz will probably be the most accurate in terms of style.

[@emesic926]

For anyone who enjoyed this wonderful piece of heaven, I highly recommend these other piano concertos that you will probably enjoy as well (if you don't already know them): Rachmaninoff - Piano Concerto No. 2 Mov. 2 (The first few minutes sound like a sweet dream. The last minutes finally let the melody express itself fully, in a wonderful piano torrent). Shostakovich - Piano Concerto No. 2, Mov. 2 (The string accompaniment is low and melancholic the first minute, then the very clear piano appears like a light in the night, pure beauty). Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 23, Mov. 2 (Deep and painful at the beginning, then more optimistic, and finally the theme of the beginning is taken up and completed, really moving). Beethoven - Piano Concerto No. 5, Mov. 2 (The movement begins with masterful strings. Then the piano enters, subtle and delicate. Grandiose) Hope you will like these masterpieces too !

[@JT29501]

sarcastic bowl of cornflakes Dvorak is an excellent composer, severely underated in my opinion - a fair few of his symphonies are masterpieces (not just the 9th!), they are very Beethovian. Liszt and Paganini are legendary performers and their works for their own instruments are incredibly virtuostic but I don't think they are underated by people who play those instruments. I do enjoy Prokofiev and Saint-Saens and was lucky enough to grow up in a household where my Dad played classical guitar so I am very familiar with Sor and Tarrega. Anyway I would agree that those are better examples of underrated composers but even they have all produced great works which have a firm place in the repertoire (with the exception perhaps of Tartini and Medtner, who I will check out. I've heard the Devils Trill sonata and a few Medtner pieces that are on other CD's but nothing beyond that I don't think). Anyway I would just add Bruckner to your list - the great symphonist should be talked about on the same level as Mahler and Shostakovich in my opinion, but his insecurity and constant revising of his works I think makes him harder to access than those two.

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

sarcastic bowl of cornflakes​ I never called him a unsung hero. I said that Bach, Mozart, Beethoven AND Tchaikovsky are in the same level. In most cases, the critic and the public only remember those 3 as they are some kind of a divine trinity or something, the greatest composers. Both Vivaldi and tchaikovsky don't get too far behind them, but this is not a common agreement between the masses. And no, this song is not popular. Swan Lake is very popular, but this one don't get even half of the recognition. And that's the point.. Tchaikovsky is only know for the waltz, Vivaldi is only know by the seasons. They have plenty of material unknown for the general public, and that is a tremendous shame.

Tchaikovsky has to be my favourite composer ever! Every single piece he wrote, every ballet piece composed by him just instantly captivates your heart and soul! The life and colour in his artistry is just remarkable!

[@thesilvershining]

I agree! My favorite composer forever. I can’t decide if Swan Lake, the violin concerto, or the 6th symphony is his ultimate masterpiece. Perhaps a 3-way tie!

[@manishvishwakrama489]

@@thesilvershining His ultimate masterpiece is the dance of the sugarplum fairy, nothing can top that

[@MiguelCampoblanco]

Everyone relating this glorious masterpiece as the ROC anthem in Tokyo 2020... As a Peruvian it always gives me goosebumps as I heard this in the opening ceremony of Russia 2018! We were back at a World Cup after 36 long years, and Russia welcomed us with this piece of heaven! Unforgettable!

[@OlafGasbrigiUndNick]

Tchaikovsky is very well known, I think Rachmaninow and Skrjabin are mor underrated :)

[@Boccaccio1811]

I think he's underrated in the sense that music scholars don't take his music as seriously as other composers like Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, and Brahms because his music is more driven by emotion instead of form and structure like these other composers... It's ridiculous to me tho because in my opinion that's what makes his music more interesting... And I think when compared to these other composers, Tchaikovsky's music has stood the test of time pretty well and is some of the most well-liked by general audiences. I mean think about it... He's got the 1812 overture, Romeo and Juliet, nutcracker, Swan lake, this piece, and others.. It don't matter what the scholars say about him, his music has touched the hearts of many people

[@wendyellini]

how old are you now

[@bandkidsrock]

My favorite parts: 4:28-5:02 this part feels like restless thoughts bouncing back and forth in one’s mind. 6:02-6:59 when I listen to this, I feel a sense of longing for something. 7:00-7:56 melancholic, romantic, wistful, and a feeling of nostalgia for the future…Words cannot describe the emotions this part brings to me.

[@juniperos]

Another word for longing is wistful

[@bandkidsrock]

@@juniperos Yes, you are correct! I was trying to explain that both parts of the piece have the same emotion without using the same word twice. Thank you though! 😊
