Keller continues : the sonata problem, the question of asymmetry-versus-or-cum-symmet
ry of rhythmic structure, the concerto problem, the sore question of modern piano writing, the puzzle of dodecaphony-versus-or-cum-tona lity, and the historical dilemma of anti-romanticism or romanticism. It 'solves' them as instinctively as a healthy constitution solves the problems of growth in adverse circumstances of upbringing. -
Keller continues:
There is new and incisive thought, a novel developmental idea, an unsuspected textural perspective at every corner, and eventually you realise that this music has solved six burning modern problems without you having been aware of them:
-
One of the greatest piano concertos of 20th century. A work of a genius.
Hans keller wrote about this concerto:Passionately dramatic and lyrical, heroic and tenderly submissive in turns, the Concerto is an immediately fascinating work whose strong and spontaneous masculinity contrasts vehemently with the sadistic masculinity complex, intrinsically flaccid, of much contemporary music.
