I am primarily a Romantic Piano Concerto listener addict. I am amazed at how many are now available on RUclips. I found this concerto on a previous visit. It got lost in the many other listens. It is my delight to have had this opportunity to visit it again.
Yet another wonderful composer revealed after being overshadowed by a few who hog the limelight. History is cruel in its arbitrary selection of those who are to be esteemed, and those who to be relegated to the backwaters. Luckily we have such medias as this, which can procure these underestimated gems. Thank you for posting.
Surely the main thanks are due to the soloist Markovich and conductor Jarvi and the ESNO for recording it in the first place. Putting it on RUclips is a rather minor accomplishment in comparison!
@@adrianwright8685 Minor but incredibly important! Imagine how many wonderful recordings there are of pieces like this that maybe we'll never hear because no one has had the initiative or opportunity to upload them! What's all the effort that these artists put into music if we can never listen to their interpretations?
@@yufnihaenisch2164 I would think the artists would prefer their recordings to be bought rather than listened to for free. After all that's why they make the recordings - to earn their living!
@@yufnihaenisch2164 Well you can easily find the sheet music in music shops. At least, thats how i find new music, and then proceed to look for it and give it a listen on youtube, but there are many no one ever uploaded in here
I'd rather listen to this 10 times in a row (I honestly could) than to the atonal serialist racket produced by the likes of Stockhausen, Boulez and Goeyvaerts.
i discovered him recently and i fell in love with his work...i have never heard anything like this in my entire life it was a magic moment when i first listened to this piece ! I was so amazed
This almost utterly forgotten yet monumentally astonishing concerto without any doubt has Brahms second make a run for its money. Titanic difficulties in this work.
This piece is throughly bravura! I enjoyed how powerfully the composer wielded his ideas and developed them fearlessly. The second movement had me breathless. I attempted to follow the score(though I have little technical ability) but my eyes literally hurt to follow it. It made me think of Chopin, Camille Saint-Saens and Brahms combined. That’s a heady elixir! This is one of the most moving pieces by the lesser known composers I have heard yet. How refreshing it would be to hear this on the concert stage. I love it! PWG
I listen to Xaver Scharwenka quite often. the first movement is rather spectacular. Xaver Scharwenka's 4th piano concerto is up there with Beethoven, Saint Saens, and Tchaikovsky.
Reading the score, I was surprised that some choices were left for others to explore. Now, having read some of the comments, maybe I am not the only one who felt there were missed opportunities here. That said, we should encourage anyone with any skill level to attempt to play these obscure pieces of music to the best of their ability - lest these pieces completely die. I thoroughly enjoyed the performance in any case and am grateful for its having been posted.
I agree with you, for instance: the pianist has no great dynamic "palet" as it were . There are many specific dynamic markings and he more or less ignores them .A pity ,because he has the chops ,but maybe not the right feel for this sort of music. Nevertheless : enjoyable and I wish more pianists will study the 4 concertos
This performance doesn't compare to Earl Wild's legendary recording from 1969 with Leinsdorf and the BSO, please check out that recording if you haven't heard it. The Markovich recordings are my go-to for Scharwenka's 2nd and 3rd piano concerti, and Stephen Hough's recording with Hyperion is the best recording of the 4th concerto.
Le hasard ce Week-end a fait que c’est trois concerti de Scharwenka que j’ai écouté ! Le 1er semble le plus abouti dans la veine de Tchaikovsky virtuose, post romantique ! Interprétation remarquable !
I don't care how old (or young, for that matter) he was at the time of composing this or his other concertos - I just can't tire of any of them no end. After I thought I'm familiar with almost all great concertos, from Mozart through Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, Schumann, Grieg, Brahms, Saint-Saens, Bortkiewicz, Tsaikovsky, Rachmaninoff up to Bartók, Prokofjev or Stravinsky. I find Scharwenka always among the best and most entertaining. Without prioritising...
I LOVE how Scharwenka gives us a glimmer of sunlight in 28:18, making us anticipate a major key grand finish, but he reverts to the minor at 28:48 just to say "it isn't over yet" and instead gives us a much more tragic minor key finish (I'm not sure if tragic is the right word here) -- I totally agree with his choice. It's pretty similar to the issue of whether to play a picardy third at the end of the Bach-Busoni Chaconne; there too I much prefer the minor finish.
Superbo concerto, con passaggi di grande virtuosismo, soprattutto nell'ultimo bellissimo movimento.Scharwenka mostra qui le sue notevolissime doti pianistiche e concertistiche,che caratterizzeranno anche gli altri suoi futuri concerti.
the second movement is so beautiful! I can't really describe the emotions in this movement because it's so complicated. There is happiness but also sorrow, hope but also despair, impressive!
Scharwenka wrote his first piano concerto in 1876. Two years earlier Tchaikovsky wrote his first PC also in B flat minor. Although Scharwenka's piano concerto is a good piece, I must say that I find Tchaikovsky's piano concerto much more innovative for the time.
For me this is one of the three best piano concertos ever written. I heard a claim that Liszt himself was so impressed by this marvellous piece of music that he learned and performed it. Does anyone know if the claim is true?
@@darrylschultz6479, according to Wikipedia it is true: "The first, in B-flat minor, Op. 32 was completed in 1874 and premiered the following year. It was originally written as a solo piano fantasy, but Scharwenka was dissatisfied, and reworked it with orchestra into this form. Franz Liszt accepted the dedication and performed it in Berlin."

Thanks for posting this fine work, really enjoyed it, have you heard the great Earl Wilds account of it? if not you must do, thanks for sharing with us, regards Nick Redshed.
RedShed I still have it ! Funny, just 2 minutes ago I saw the #1 posted in RUclips and clicked into the opening bars then immediately to what I really wanted to hear, the scherzo. I immediately said to myself " Well it sure isn't Earl Wild"! That recording had a better orchestra ( BSO, is my memory correct, and some surprise conductor for a RedSeal classical, maybe Fiedler? It's been 40 years; can't recall details just the performance and the sound - balancing), better recording engineers , and...... Better soloist? Haven't decided yet. Wild is already not as well-remembered as he should be - but isn't his version a lot better than this newer one ? Who is this, Howard Shelley? I was so excited to find this on RUclips I still haven't looked for a listing of personnel. I do prefer Hough and Hamelin in this difficult High Romantic realm to Shelley but that's just a matter of taste. Howard Shelley is extraordinarily gifted; no doubt there. Is it the miking that puts the Wild/BSO/RedSeal over this recording? Oh my, this one is the epitome of the fun, in comparing classical recordings. With this one can see the " art", as distinguished from substantial skill, that " the Fine Arts" have.
I love the first 2 concerti; the 3rd and 4th, not musically, but emotionally, bespeak of a psychological problem, than rather than to give me the enjoyment of #'s 1 and 2.
Brahms 1st was my favourite piano concerto, but now this one, I find it considerably more dramatic and expressive than the Brahms 1st. ruclips.net/video/a4Jou7pgSzM/видео.html - The piano statement here though, utterly breathtaking. Many thanks for these uploads!!!
I'm finding myself in the same situation as you. So far only the 2nd movement from Brahms 1st has managed to elicit tears, however after listening to the last movement of this for the first time that's no longer the case. To think this was written when the composer was 26 while Brahms finished his first at 25. Unbelievable.
This concerto is really good- not at all flashy, but not without bravura. I think that concerti like this one are neglected because there are just so many good concerti and only so much repertoire space.
+Andrew Murphy Yes that, and the fact that people usually like to hear what they already know. So let's say someone has the choice of programming Liszt 1, or Scharwenka 1 (both equally as good), they will choose the Liszt 1 almost 100% of times because it is a piece that people already know and will 'fill the seats', so to speak.
I had a copy of the score and lost it in storage amongst other items. it's great to see it here. But, I'd prefer following along with Mr. Earl Wild's recording. guys, if you haven't heard him play this concerto, Get it! You will be very pleased. I promise. By the way, it is on you tube right now. Some one posted it earlier, but it was deleted for years it seems. Now, it's back.
Can't help the feeling that this is in fact "much ado about nothing". Although Liszt was a big fan of Maestro Xaver. U can be a virtuoso genius( like Scharwenka) and still face a major unsurmountable predicament: What to compose after all the really great piano concertos had been written? Composition genius Tchaikovsky to the rescue just 2 years later with his b flat minor concerto and other concertos, then Scott Joplin, Gershwin and Rachmaninoff at the turn of the century. Then basically curtains for really significant romantic contributions until Addinsell, then come😢 the jazz crossovers by Eddy Duchin, Cavallaro, Liberace....
Please watch this at the lowest quality only (144p) since it's just for the music, which is much more ecologically responsible than at a higher rate. Watching this at 240p (which is unnecessary for listening purposes), will increase the bandwith by double to almost tenfold! At 1080 the bandwith is augmented by a factor of 100! The use of digital technology accounts for 4% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, as much as the emissions from the world's truck fleet. Of that, a BIG part comes from livestreaming videos, mainly 3 sources : RUclips, Netlfix and porn. Let's enjoy this beautiful music by being aware and responsible, doing our little part in decreasing our carbon footprint and protecting this wonderful planet for the generations to come.
I like the first 2 concerti the best because of their uplifting, dramatic, enthusiastic nature. I'll write my comments about #'s 3 and 4 on each ones' respective playing. Incidentally, I find him much closer to Chopin that to Rachmaninoff. Scharwenka doesn't reflect a nationalistic bent that much.
Access concerti 3 and 4 and read my comments. Agree or not, you'll see what I mean. As much of a Scharwenka fan as I am, if you're looking for the melodic gift of a Chopin or Rachmaninoff, you won't it here but you will find harmonic interest in all 4 concerti.
Seth Waters Yes I know he means Moszkowski, but making a video takes quite a long time, so I just want to be sure if someone's actually requesting it before I start making a video.
I can think of a few things I would like to request but I never do b/c I think you work too much as it is, I often wonder how you find time to practice and do what you need to do to make money. That and I think it's better just to see what you choose to upload yourself as there has been so much new music I never even heard of before, it's been quite an adventure.
I stopped listening directly after the piano entry.There was no stringendo in the Orchestra and absolutely no piu animato in the piano.Please compare this to Earl Wilds legendary recording of this very fine work.
Yes and my first upload of this concerto was with Earl Wild's great recording! When my channel got terminated and I tried to re-upload the video somehow it was rejected through audio-copyright... So I had to remake the video with this other recording. So, I actually agree with you, and hope you understand the situation I had to deal with.
No need to justify yourself. He should be happy that this concerto is up to begin with so people can get acquainted with it. That there are better recordings out there is a comment I see every day on RUclips. It's getting old.
Couldn't agree more, I have heard the Wild recording and I do find that this more recent recording has nothing wrong with it. People that harshly critique recordings on RUclips need a life, I'd love to see them learn a concerto, work with an orchestra, and make a better recording.
I have a life, have learned a lot of concertos and work with an orchestra.And I normally write no harsh critics.But sometimes I do not agree with an interpretation. So what?
No need to justify yourself. He should be happy that you made a comment to begin with so people can start a discussion. That critical comments are ruinous is a comment I see every day on RUclips. It's getting old.
Mahler made one appearance as a concerto soloist..playing the first movement of this concerto.
Thank you for your comment. They are the little bits of interesting information I like to discover.

the 2nd movement is heavenly...
agreed. but check out Earl Wild's version. Better IMHO
I agree. I remember the Earl Wide/Erich Leinsdorf recording being played on Radio 3 many years ago.I love this concerto.

@@TheDarKnignt Check out the Mozkowski concertos.

And it was written before Brahms 2 as well
Happy Birthday Xaver Scharwenka! writing excellent but underrated masterpieces. ;)
I hope the new crop of budding Korean artists take up these works. Their enthusiasm and dedication to the music is second to none.
Now THIS is a Piano Concerto..... and there are more!
This is GREAT. How is this not among the most famous works in the repertory?
This piece is throughly bravura! I enjoyed how powerfully the composer wielded his ideas and developed them fearlessly. The second movement had me breathless.

A mixture of Schubert, Rachmaninoff, and Tchaikovsky, very beautiful
Can you please tell me his this is Rachmaninoff? Rachmaninoff was probably not even born at this time 😂😂😂😂
It might well have been in Rachmaninoffs musical nourishment....alot of Mozart in Beethoven...!

I think this piece sounds like Chopin would live longer about 66 years old to compose a concerto.
who is the pianist? i have the Wild but i prefer this interpretation.

So I had to remake the video with this other recording. So, I actually agree with you, and hope you understand the situation I had to deal with.
No need to justify yourself. He should be happy that this concerto is up to begin with so people can get acquainted with it. That there are better recordings out there is a comment I see every day on RUclips. It's getting old.
Couldn't agree more, I have heard the Wild recording and I do find that this more recent recording has nothing wrong with it. People that harshly critique recordings on RUclips need a life, I'd love to see them learn a concerto, work with an orchestra, and make a better recording.
I have a life, have learned a lot of concertos and work with an orchestra.And I normally write no harsh critics.But sometimes I do not agree with an interpretation. So what?
No need to justify yourself. He should be happy that you made a comment to begin with so people can start a discussion. That critical comments are ruinous is a comment I see every day on RUclips. It's getting old.

Why is the piano in the lower two staffs? Who would do such a thing?
Very Lisztian
My name is scharwerk
Bravo, so dramatic. Yet another never performed work that is quite worthwhile.
F***ing advertisements! They are KIDDING ME!

Hamelin version is infinity better
Awful. Pretty forgetable music.
