Piano Concerto no. 1 / Piano Concerto no. 2
Album by Fryderyk Chopin & Sequeira Costa & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra & Gilbert Varga
Piano Concerto No. 1 and Piano Concerto No. 2 are piano concertos by Frédéric Chopin, composed in 1830 and 1829 respectively. These early Romantic works emphasise a singing, piano-centred solo line set against a supporting orchestral backdrop, reflecting Chopin's focus on lyrical melody, refined virtuosity and his transition from salon pieces to larger-scale concert repertoire.
