3 Levels of Piano Concerto Cadenzas / Mozart - Beethoven - Grieg

Watching your fingers glide across the keys while playing these is actually so mesmerizing. you make it look so easy it’s crazy.

[@ami-pix]

Shocked by the quality of the video ! Thank you for all

[@utsteinproductions]

Rach 3 Cadenza has to be up there in difficulty level. On another note, there are a few channels that highlight forgotten composers, I made a playlist of some, which are worth listening to. Atterberg, Hummel, and Ries to name a few.

[@fryderyckchopin484]

Where can we get that playlist man?

[@samaritan29]

prokofiev 2 harder

[@freeziac]

Yes, the Ossia is insane.

[@zgart]

@@samaritan29 i played prokofiev 2, while the cadenza is hard af I don’t think it’s harder than the rach 3 ossia cadenza (that being said I think overall prok 2 is a harder piece than rach 3)

[@ulysse__]

Some other references for those interested- {LEVEL 1} Mozart: most of the 27 concertos' cadenzas are this level Beethoven: Cadenzas to concertos n°1 and 2 Haydn: Cadenzas to the 11 keyboard concertos {LEVEL 2} Beethoven: Cadenzas to concertos 3, 4 and 5 Grieg: Cadenza to his piano concerto (would actually put this one here along with Beethoven. While the Cadenza is very flashy, it's not so difficult.) Schumann: Cadenza to his piano concerto {LEVEL 3} Scharwenka - Cadenzas to the 4 piano concertos Tchaikovsky- Cadenza to the piano concerto n°1 Bach - cadenza from Brandenburg Concerto n°5 Ravel - Cadenza to the piano concerto in g Schnittke- Cadenza to the Concerto for piano and strings {BONUS / LEVEL 4} Rachmaninoff - Cadenzas to concertos n°1 and 3 Prokofiev - Cadenza to concerto n°2 Ginastera - Cadenza from the Concerto Ravel - Left hand concerto cadenza Feinberg - Concerto n°1, third movement

Love the production quality on this video!! Editing, sheet music, musical "intermissions", sound quality, everything was 💯

[@TraumPiano]

🙏

[@destructiveodst1199]

Absolutely love the addition of the score above the keyboard

[@markfowlermusic]

The part at 4:28 is Beethoven trolling the pianist right? Seen him do this in some of his other works including Hammerklavier sonata, trills in both hands whilst having to play other melody notes in both hands all at the same time, probably puts this above the grieg in terms of difficulty...

[@late8641]

Well, in the Grieg cadenza you have to simultaneously trill in thirds and play the melody in octaves with your right hand while playing fast arpeggios eith your left hand. Grieg is hands down more difficult.

[@saumdehganpour7598]

@@late8641 that’s not a trill in thirds, it’s a tremolo, the Beethoven cadenza is definitely more tricky

[@late8641]

@@saumdehganpour7598 That part of the Beethoven cadenza isn't as hard as it sounds, and I know that as a pianist. I mean, I can play it easily, and that's not any kind of flex because it's genuinely not that difficult.

[@saumdehganpour7598]

Matters how you play it

[@paules3437]

So nice hear that Mozart. I played that concerto with my school orchestra at age 14 and worked hard on the cadenza. I have played thru the other two many times just for my own edification. Thanks!

[@ziiizzzooo]

i love this presentation with the sheet music way more than the synthesia ones, hope to see more like this though

[@Traumfanblueheron]

BRAVO, Maestro! It's as if I am at Disney Hall. Beethoven Concerto 3 Cadenza is so joyfully played, would love to see/hear the whole piece. Like the other 2 concertos as well. I love this format. What a treat! Thank YOU ❤️

[@TraumPiano]

Thank YOU ;)

[@gmnotyet]

Grieg's is so beautiful, it's like from another world.

[@kyleethekelt]

Oh, Traum. Good old Beethoven no. 3 in C Minor brings back such memories. I studied it for my School Certificate (I think that would be GCSE in England but I have no idea what the equivalent would be elsewhere) and I well remember the cadenza. Wasn't it the first time Beethoven actually wrote out the full cadenza for the soloist instead of leaving it to their discretion? My School C was some 40 years ago now, so I could have misremembered. Lovely work as usual.

[@Traumfanblueheron]

@Kylee Maloney I was at Disney Concert Hall on Jan 30, Igor Levitt performed the Beethoven Concerto 3. According to the program book, on April 5, 1803, the score of Concerto was not finished by the rehearsal at 8 am and remained a work in progress during the premier. Beethoven's pupil , Ignaz von Seyfried was the page turner and he said " I saw empty pages with here and there what looked like Egyptian hieroglyphs, totally unintelligible to me, scribbled to serve as a clues for him. Beethoven played nearly all of his part from memory, since he had put so little on page. So, whenever he reached the end of some invisible passage, he gave me a surreptitious nod and I turn the page. My anxiety not to miss such a nod amused him greatly and the recollection of it at our convivial dinner after the concert sent him into gales of laughter." The Concerto had a Second Premier in Vienna a year later, from the finished manuscript - presumably without hieroglyphs- and the honor of playing was given to Ferdinand Rises by Beethoven.

[@jessicachiu5953]

@@Traumfanblueheron That's a really cute story :D I almost can image Seyfried look dead inside on the stage lol

@@jessicachiu5953 Amazing isn't it! He must be so terrified. And then to think about what a genius Beethoven is.

Grieg's cadenza is great fun to play - it's got some tricky bits but a lot of is quite playable for a good amateur. Prok PC2 and Rach 3 ossia cadenzas are much more difficult.

[@ConcordMass]

Grieg's concerto is so underrated. It used to be my favorite before I discovered the Transcendental Etudes (before I only knew the Hungarian Rhapsody 2 and 6, which are honestly not that good).

[@Frankoceanswhale]

favourite etude? i learnt some of molto vivace or fusées but i think vision, eroica and feux follets especially takes the cake. but they're all just marvellous

[@ConcordMass]

@@Frankoceanswhale harmonies -> eroica -> molto vivace -> appassionata -> i dont really the others much now but -> chasse neige -> vision -> mazeppa -> feux follets -> i really dont like the rest of them but if i had to rank them -> wild jagd -> preludio -> paysage -> ricordanza. i disagree with feux follets, it just sounds like a flex, and ricordanza honestly shouldnt be that low, but its literally just 9 minutes of absolute crap and 1 minute of ok-ness. also harmonies is extremely underrated but its so beautiful and shows the other side to liszt.

[@epthopper]

Grieg’s concerto is probably the most played piano concerto in the repertoire. Not sure how it’s underrated lol

[@ConcordMass]

​@@epthopper haha yeah ik that now somehow I didn't know that 10 months ago...

If you're at Traum's level of technique, the levels here are reversed. Playing Mozart cleanly and expressively is actually quite difficult.
