That was VERY HARD. I identified only five works and got three additional composers rigth through educated guesses. But, as always, thanks a lot, and give us more!
Thanks for your feedback. For some reason, lately my quizzes are becoming more and more difficult.
@@adiosmusictest I like these difficult ones, many new pieces to check 👍
But of course the popular ones are popular because of a reason
For next time: definitely include Grieg and Schumann, such staples. Also Dvorak, Ravel and Bartok. Branching out a little, the Barber concerto is great, so is Ligeti. Maybe include Bach (on piano)?
Thanks for such useful recommendations. I'm always happy when users offer their ideas and I use them often, although not right away!
The Mozart sounded an incredibly mature work. Couldn't even get the composer.
Lol. It's neither mature nor originally by Mozart.
Just bunch of mozart cliches
@@fjdyyh2542 Neither. This is not a pasticcio, a composition "in the style of". It's the work of another (elder) composer, I'm too lazy to google who it was, like a sonata for piano solo or pianoforte and violin, I'm too lazy again to google what exactly it was, which the young Mozart arranged as a piano concerto.
Mozarts first four "piano concertos" are such arrangements of works of other composers. So it's quite normal that this doesn't "sound like Mozart"...
@@Pogouldangeliwitz JC Bach. I'm not sure including this work was even fair.
@@MichaelGilman489 It wasn't, but then, hey, this is YT. An asocial media made for 13-year-old ignoramuses. 🙄
VERY difficult - I love every one of these composers/works. Only got Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Prokofiev, Shostakovich.
Thanks for the comment, the difficulty is really high. But specifically for the “Guess the Piano Concerto” series, it’s unlikely that it will be possible to make the task any easier. It will be even more difficult))
Shostakovich's 2nd concerto is on my playlist, but I confused it with Prokofiev's 2nd. what a shame...
Sometimes I go through my old quizzes and am surprised that I confuse the most basic things. This should probably be done with a fresh mind.
I found that really hard! I got the Tchaikovsky, the Brahms and the Beethoven, and guessed a couple of the other composers although the wrong numbers. I'd never heard of Moscheles but I like the sound of that concerto. Good challenge, thanks.
I agree about the difficulty. There are various famous concertos without a number, for example by Schumann. Well, there are a lot of well-known ones with numbers 1 and 2. But in this concept, with options 1-5, the complexity increases sharply.
0/15 as usual.
It is impossible to score 0 in this quiz.
@@adiosmusictest the last one is no 2! I knew it! 😀
I only got the Saint-Saens and Tchaikovsky, almost got the Shosty but fumbled the number 😅 I was disappointed in missing some I had heard before. Now I need to go listen to every piece on this list!
Super fun! And very difficult!
Great quiz, as a pianist I did pretty poorly! But I liked that you ended up on Liszt!
Thanks. Well, here, except for Tchaikovsky’s 1st concerto, all the other tasks can be called difficult, well, maybe Beethoven is easy else.
Chopin was free too !
@@IvoryStrings Yes and Rachmaninov was recognizable, by process of elimination.
@@dgmullin1 I didnt look at the screen (i mean i was looking at something else while listening) 😅 It was between rach1 and 4, but they are different enough that it was quite clear after a few seconds.
Ooof. I only got 3 :(
Glad to know there are so many more piano concertos out there I can still listen to though!
Guessed 2 correctly. Tsjaikovski (super easy) and Chopin 😅
I mist Liszt, Moscheles, Ries, Kabalevsky.
1.)Beethoven 3
2.)?
3.)Saint saens 5
4.)Tchaikovsky 1
5.)Mendelssohn 2?
6.)?
7.)Brahms 2
8.)?
9.)Beethoven 5
10.)? Weber?
11.)Prokofiev 5
12.)Chopin 1
13.)Shostakovich 2
14.)Something pre Chopin?
15.)Rach 4
16.)Liszt 2
17.)Beethoven 3
8/13, awesome test!
I only got 4, Tchaikovsky, chopin, Prokofjev and Shostakovich
never come across rubinstein before, but that piano concerto goes hard 🔥🔥
I already staged Rubinstein in previous videos, but I really liked his concerto that I couldn’t resist adding it here too..
Only Rach and Chopin for me. Actually hard (Of course the Tchaikovsky too)
I got really lucky on some of my genuine guesses to only get two numbers wrong.
Interesting test even for musicians. I mean, I definitely don't need to "guess" Tchaikovsky 1, Chopin or Brahms 2, especially when you put the movements from the beginning, but there were some truly difficult guesses, like Mendelssohn or Kabalevsky. Even pieces like Prokofiev 5 or Liszt 2 are known to an educated ear but difficult to immediately locate in the memory.
You can make it even more interesting in case you decide to incorporate famous pieces like Tchaikovsky 1, to put it really from some kind of obscure theme or a weird transition - then it would be embarrassing even to much educated audiences to not immediately guess what's the piece. 😅
I didn’t know whether to write an answer in Russian or in English, but decided not to risk it)). Thanks for your feedback and recommendations. You are absolutely right: I try to insert different sections of works into quizzes, sometimes to increase difficulty, sometimes to balance. I’m even thinking about a quiz on different sections from the same work, but I haven’t gotten around to implementing it yet.
That was fun! I recognized Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Chopin and Rachmaninoff and correctly guessed Mozart, Shostakovich and Prokofiev. Never heard of Kabalevsky, Moscheles and Ries before but I will definitely check them out!
Thank you. Personally, I really liked all three of them in piano concertos. So they will appear more than once in future quizzes))
7/15. Some I knew easily....a couple I guessed...and some I didn't know at all.
Upload more!!!!!
VERY DIFFICULT!!!
9/15 plus guessed Mozart and Moscheles. Didn't get the Rubinstein, which sounds awesome. Know his more famous 4th but not this one.
Thanks for your feedback. Rubinstein just amazed me, I’m even thinking about putting it on my ringtone))
Got Moscheles and even Ries ! but not rubinstein, it’s a shame
That was hard! I got shosty, tchaik, saint saens, rach, liszt and beethoven. I don't listen to piano music often :(
Finally, listeners have problems with Mozart, who is usually guessed in 2-3 seconds))
@@adiosmusictestRight..it was difficult because it wasn't by Mozart.. his earliest concertos were arrangements of other composers' works (often JC Bach).
13/15
This is simply an incredible result. Congratulations!
Got 8 right, just because i played those concertos 😅
Incredible. Which ones do you recommend for the second part? I wish they had numbers))
8:18 Is that Beethoven's pupil we know?😯
7/15 idk how I didn’t guess Beethoven 5 but somehow guessed Liszt 2. Great quiz!
Thanks for your feedback. The next part will be even more difficult, but you will definitely have one correct answer))
11/15 but I had Mendelssohn 2 instead of 3. Who knows Ries, Mocheles, Kabalevsky and Rubinstein except for maestro H. Shelley?
An incredible result for this series. In general, it’s hard for me to imagine a person who could guess so much and didn’t play the piano himself))
@@adiosmusictest well, you guessed it, I play myself, bonuspoint for you!
8 composers and concerto's right and 1 which I guessed the composer: Mendelssohn. I didn't know he wrote a 3rd concerto. Was it a work from his youth?
And one question, why is Tsjaikovski no 1 hard to guess? 🙂
Nice quizz!
I try to add 1-2 simple tasks to each difficult quiz, and vice versa in an easy one there will be 1-2 difficult ones. About Mendelssohn: I found info that 3rd concerto was unfinished.
@@adiosmusictest Thanks for your answer!
I got five concertos and eight composers right (although I wasn't totally sure for Prokofiev).
Ахах, в вашей викторине не сложно было догадаться, кто будет в конце)
Спасибо .. только я не понял, вы имели в виду единственный ответ в конце или то, что это был именно Франц Лист?
@@adiosmusictest То, что это был Лист))
кстати, а почему именно он стал своеобразным ведущим этих роликов?
@@user-of8wv6zx9o На самом деле самый первый ролик я выпустил без него, но потом понял, что неплохо было добавить кого-нибудь для комментирования и подсказок. А поскольку отличительной чертой этой серии является наличие справа Списка с вариантами(Список - по англ. List) .. то получилось своеобразная концепция - "Есть список - есть Лист, нет списка - нет Листа".
Wow, i got a lot more than expected, at 5. I got Saint-Seans, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Kabalevsky, and Shostakovich right. I got Beethoven right as well, but not the number.
Also, I have never heard lf Rubinstein before. Definitely going to check them out now that I heard that amazing concerto.
Rubinstein and Kabalevsky surprised me too that I didn’t even doubt it, putting Rubinstein first on the list of concertoes for this quiz
Have heard these for 74 years, many many times….easy, got them all in seconds.
Indeed, for familiar melodies a few seconds are enough. I hope the following parts will give you at least minimal problems))
4 pieces (chopin, rach, shostakovich, tchaik), 2 composers
5/15 and then just guessed Prokofiev and Mozart lol
I didnt get Rubinstein, Ries, Mendelssohn and Moscheles, which I all may have heard once or twice before. I also got tripped up by the Beethoven as well, the extract didnt give much to stand on honestly ! Mozart I got the number wrong. And last miss, I had a brain freeze on the Liszt, and by the time I was remembering it, it was too late. So 7,5/15...
4/15 😵 Got the Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Chopin and Rachmaninoff. Glad there's still so much beauty to be discovered.
Thanks for the answer. There really will be a lot more beauty and discoveries!
Thank you. I did very poorly with my guesses but I blame being tired! However, I learned of some new names and some new music!
Blessings and peace from UK
And thank you for your comment. I will continue to surprise and add something new for the audience))
@@adiosmusictest
Excellent!
10 I knew both composer and concerto. One I knew just the composer. Moscheles, Aries, and Rubenstein were completely unfamiliar.
You need to pass quizzes with the "Expert" level!
Got the Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Liszt and Shostakovich. Most of the rest I didn't have a clue about!
When I was looking through the list of all the piano concerts, I also saw a large number of unfamiliar names, but in this part I used only some of them that I liked best.
No Chopin?? I got him and all of the ones you got minus shostakovich. And I guessed Mozart to be Mozart
Got 8 of them, but only because I was able to guess the Prokofiev 5th Concerto. Very tough exam!
8 answers for this part would be an excellent result on a possible classical music exam))
@@adiosmusictest , thanks... but despite having many times listened to all of Mozart's piano concerti, I missed his Concerto # 4 in this presentation. It is a good challenge, this piano concerto exam.
7 completely correct but guessed the wrong beethoven concerto. Fairly content
In this part, any result of 5 or more correct answers can be considered a success))
Nailed five: Brahms 2, Tchaik 1 (easy, peasy), Shost 2, Beethoven 5 (the other easy one!), Rach 4 (choices for number had waned at that point) and got 3 of the composers Mozart (which seemed way too mature for number 4, so seriously impressive), Chopin (should have remembered was no. 1 - did he write a second?) and Prokofiev (haven't heard the concertos for so long, but it's also damned fine as is the Shostakovich). And also got the last one if you count "some kind of Romantic mush". Well, that's Liszt, right?!
The Mozart is deceptive. The first 4 Concertos are not his music. He simply arranged music of other composers. The fourth is by Honauer and Raupach.
@@Quotenwagnerianer That's a fascinating fact. Thanks. (Yet still sounds like Mozart.)
@@jamesboswell9324 Yeah, I was first made aware of this when I bought a complete set of his piano concertos which started at No.5 and I was so confused.
The reason was that the pianist doing them decided he only wanted to record the works that were actually by Mozart.
8/15, 11 composers.
There were many beautiful pieces there, I liked Kabalevsky the best (never heard of him before), so Thank you!
Listen to the full 3rd, it's full of youthful energy ! And quite short.
I don't know him well, but I really like his Overture to Colas Breugnon. Played an arrangement of it in high school wind ensemble.
Oooh, a got a couple good obscure ones for Part II
One of my favorites, Piano Concerto in D minor by Fumio Hayasaka. Incredible and heavy late-romantic 1st mvt. It's extremely underrated
The piano's entrance in mvt. 2 of Dupont's Piano Concerto 3 in F minor. It's not the best of concertos, but that short moment is very nice.
Besides those, I'd add Dvorak's Piano Concerto
Thanks for such a detailed description. I really love comments like this, then I read them before creating other parts!
Thanks for uploading!
I found this somewhat easier than the medium level!? Dvořak, Poulenc, Gershwin, Bartók are my proposals for more quizzes
Thanks for the comment. For me, determining the level of difficulty is always a difficult task)) Many times I thought that it would be easy, but the audience complained about the excessive complexity. Or vice versa .. I have already changed the difficulty in the title of previous videos several times))
Oh these can be made fiendishly difficult given that Hyperion recorded every concerto you never heard of.
Let's see how I fare, will get back to you after I watched the video.
Edit : Mozart 4? That was mean. Considering the first 4 Concertos of Mozart consist completely of music not by Mozart and instead are arrangements of movments from other composers.
That being said 8 and 1/2. I got that it was Prokoviev just not which one.
Finally a Piano Video!I got almost all
I've been meaning to do this for a long time, but only now I was able to))
6/15: Rach 4, Chopin 1, Brahms 2, Tchaikovsky 1 (don’t think it belonged into the hard section) Emperor and Shostakovich 2. For Prokofiev 5, I guessed the composer but not the concerto number (never listened to it before). Did not recognize the Egyptian concerto😢
Thanks for the detailed answer. I try to add 1-2 easy questions to each difficult quiz, and vice versa, 1-2 difficult ones fall into easy quizzes.
Waiting for Medtner and Bartok next time!
Thank you. Bartok will definitely be there, it’s just that the downloaded file is there))
@@adiosmusictest and I forgot about Bortkiewicz :) He also has got 3 brilliant piano concertos.
Pretty Damn SO HARD! but so eye opener to me.
6/15, Very tough!
If you know the piece, you can tell in 5 seconds. If not, you can take a stab at guessing the composer. Otherwise it's a crab shoot. It's not problem solving or reasoning. Difficult is not the right word.
It is in a piano concerto that it is really difficult to guess the composer if you have not heard it before. But in other works (overtures, symphonies, etc.), on the contrary, it’s quite interesting to try to recognize a style or a familiar sound, sometimes you just forget something and frantically remember)) As for the exact words, this is very difficult, even with a translator at hand.
@@adiosmusictest some, like Mozart or Prokofiev, has a unique style that it’s easier to tell its them even if you’ve never heard the work. don’t get me wrong, you did a great job and great service! Keep them coming.
Find 11...
I only got 6/15...

Mozart 4 is not Mozart.
Who is it ?
@@IvoryStringshonauer and raupach
@IvoryStrings Mozart concertos 1 to 4 aren't original, just reworkings.
@@russelldeitch5765 arrangements or reorchestrations
Concertos does not have the letter e in it.
Thanks for the correction. I removed the "e" from the description. But it’s not in the video anymore, but I’ll definitely remember it for the future!
Why djd Liszt identify with Kabalevsky's homeland? Wasn't Kabalevsky Russian?
Thanks for the question. But it won't be so easy to answer. Most people from Russia know the song “My HomeLand, Beloved Forever” ("Край родной на век любимый" - The translation is not entirely correct, but the meaning is conveyed), which is based on Kabalevsky’s 3rd concert, and this is just a reference to this song)) To make it a little clearer what I’m talking about, I’ll attach a link as an example of the performance of this song ruclips.net/video/XWgF_ebYJns/видео.html
And Liszt just hums(croon, sing) a song))
@@adiosmusictest Wow I didn't know that, thanks!
What is the intro concerto?
Beethoven 3
@@iggyreilly2463 Thank you!
Nobody has guessed the intro/outtro music!
Why.. there is an answer to this question in the comments!
No need to guess - but I recognised it anyway. Beethoven III in C minor.
Ez for someone who likes romantic garbage
