  • He didn't like it? *lol*... Every composer would give his right arm if he had created this piece =)

    THx for the upload!!

  • The piano part from 2:56 to 3:49 was not written by Chopin. A bastardization of the original score.

  • just discovered this, I LOVE IT.

  • @Solstasis As you know it. scores have ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿

  • @quebecois22 Also, Chopin did begin work on a third concerto for two pianos and orchestra in 1831 which he said he would play with a good friend of his, but this came to nothing. Chopin spent many months working on this piece but had such great difficulty with it, that in the end of placed it to the side, with the intention of revisiting it in the future. He never did this, and the original manuscript is completely lost today, although Chopin may have used themes/ideas from this in other works.

  • @quebecois22 It is not true about Chopin not liking his third piano concerto as it was likely never written! It is unknown as to wether or not orchestral parts (or other movements) were ever scored by Chopin himself. In 1841 he wrote a letter to a publisher offering them rights to publish his recent "Allegro maestose (of 3me concerto)" for 1000 francs. It is more than likely that Chopin never wrote the orchestral parts.

  • well if some one of great knowledge finished Mozart's requiem, them it is only fitting that some one finish of Chopin's Last final piano concerto. =)

  • It is true,but is a few seconds more, to 4:01. Probably is a recording played by Setrak(really awful). The only one I like is played by Michael Ponti with the O.S.Berlin conducted by Volker Schmidt Gertenbach, in a vinyl record wich I have for a long time(it is not perfect, but is acceptable). I love this piece, and I love Chopin.

  • The piano part from 2:56 to 3:49 was not written by Chopin.

  • @abidoful great analysis and insight! I thought exactly the same - it sounds as if the orchestration had been written in the 20th century by some Soundtrack composer. Chopin's orchestration would have hinted more to Mozart and been less overpowering to the piano. Maybe even quite in some more parts, with just 1 instrument dialogueing with the piano (a horn or an oboe perhaps). But the piano is definetly Chopin's, unmistakeably.
