24 of the Best Ever Classical Piano Concertos
I
had always considered classical music beyond my comprehension, until
one day I sat down and listened to Piano Concerto No. 20 by Mozart.
I was so mesmerized by the depth and beauty of that great work that I
become hooked! I realized many years later it was no accident that I was
seduced by a piano concerto, rather than opera, chamber music, or other
orchestral works. Piano concertos occupy a special place in classical
music, being part orchestral (nearly symphonic) in grandeur and power,
and part chamber music, thanks to the soft, intimate, and familiar
sounds of the piano. Piano concertos offer a great introduction to
classical music for the uninitiated. So, here I've collected some 24 of
my favourite piano concertos to share with you. I couldn't begin to tell
you which I most prefer. How about you?
