Concerto for Piano and Orchestra no. 1 & 2

Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 1 and No. 2 are piano concertos by Polish composer Frédéric Chopin, composed in 1829–1830. Rooted in the early Romantic tradition, the concertos feature piano-centred orchestration, lyrical melodic writing and virtuosic piano passages that reflect Chopin's distinctive pianistic style and occupy an early stage of his career when he adapted salon-oriented pianism to the larger concerto form in 19th-century music history.
