Yeah, I have never really found much value in the Chopin concertos, although I love his music. I agree that the Rach 3 is ahead of the Tchaikovsky 1 as far as orchestral interest. There are concertos I really like - I am actually a fan of the Grieg and the Liszt 1, believe it or not, and of course Beethoven and Brahms.....and I think there is more orchestral interest in even Mozart...but still, if I want to listen to Beethoven or Brahms piano music I am much more likely to listen to solo piano.
Violin concertos strike me as rising much more naturally from the orchestral fabric. Having said that, the perfect concerto is "Harold in Italy"........
Follow Ups:
It was cute....and a nice light contrast to the Rach 3....but there is something about watching a pianist do an encore while the rest of the orchestra sits and listens that feels objectionable. At least, to me.
what should they do? leave? The audience certainly asked for the encore
