Wat is dit prachtig! Voor mij heeft het Larghetto de herinnering aan mijn broer Peter die dit altijd in de voorkamer van het ouderlijk op de piano speelde te Waalwijk.
Helaas is mijn broer te jong overleden aan aids; hij had een bewogen leven achter de rug! Deze muziek vertelt zijn leven! Chopin bedankt...

@EatssRainbows Yes indeed I am fully aware of the two of them, and have played both of them over the past 60 years.

I recently turned down the opportunity to conduct this concerto because I thought it would be a waste of the orchestra's time, no matter how brilliant the soloist.

Why is there even an orchestra there? Chopin routinely abuses the orchestra so completely that its inclusion is practically ignorable; even the most totally second-rate group can toss off the accompaniment to a Chopin concerto on half a rehearsal (although coordinating entrances, particularly in cadenzas, is quite tricky). A good orchestra is simply wasted on Chopin, though. Of course, I too have no soul, as I did not weep at the piano's entrance, so take my words as you will.

My favourite part: 4:03
Its so dramatic

tubo muchos errores el pianista :o
If this movement ...does not make you weep ...from the moment the piano makes its first entry...then I dare say you have no soul at all and are in fact a rock......magnificent....this is what I want to hear playing when I am on my death bed....
