It's unfortunate when a composer becomes essentially known as a "one piece composer". For von Flowtow it's his opera "Martha". Ironically, it's best known song is the beautiful "The last Rose of Summer", which he did not compose (it's an Irish folk song). So it's refreshing to hear another work by this composer! His piano concerto, though lightweight, has a number of original passages and treatments of the solo instrument. Post Beethoven, for several decades, many of the early Romantic era concertos by mid-level composers were lightweight -- perhaps that's what the audiences wanted! In this sense, von Flowtow provided what he thought his audience wanted. Whatever, more than "Martha" deserves to be heard!
Quelques gouttes de Chopin dans ce concerto essez primesautier que je ne connaissais pas... Je croyais que v. Flotow, c"'était uniquement un auteur d'opéras. Une touche de clarté française sympathique... Le scherzo est très vivant avec un peu d'impertinence bien venue.Adagio chantant et d'esprit "vocal" assez original... Ce conncerto mériterait d'être joué plus souvent, Drôle comme internet remet en place des oeuvres injustement délaissées....
Thank you for posting this piece. Never heard it but am enchanted. Hats off to you.
concerto poco conosciuto e mai eseguito nei teatri, ma è veramente stupendo.
Thanks for rescuing this work from obscurity. Since you've got nothing for us to look at, it would have been nice to be able to watch the score.
Thank you for this outstanding work. We should ask our favorite classical music radio stations and Internet sites not to ignore it ...
1. Andantino / Allegro / Marziale più mosso - (from 0:00)
2. Scherzo: Vivace e leggieramente - (from 5:32)
3. Adagio - (from 8:24)
4. Rondo: Allegretto / Scherzando / Maestoso / Allegretto (from 14:22)
This is quite nice and original. Shares the same sunny feeling as Hummel.
Very nice romantic music of another forgotten composer! I like this concerto very much!
What a superb concerto!
Some of the piano passages are especially brilliant. IMO of course 🙂
Great composer Flotow. Love his music. I'm from south Brasil and love his opera Martha to.
I am actually happy to read all these comments. I take this very personal, which I think I should.
As you can see, we're some many people to thank you for having performed this beautiful concerto !

Of course you should. You play this very well indeed!

I thought I knew them all with the hundreds of p.c. cds lining the cottage - but what a discovery? Thank you. ev.
There are more than 20 000 romantic and post-romantic piano concertos to discover ! You can see the list of uploads of collectionCB, collectionCB2 and collectionCB3, and of course it's only a very very little part of the "little-known" repertory :

I listened with pleasure this delightful music. Thank you for posting !
Awesome music.
Le second concerto de Flotow supérieur au premier, très primesautier et romantique proche de Hummel et Chopin par certains côtés est une belle découverte. Merveilleux interprètes !
How is it possible that this wonder is not better known?
This concerto should be better known. It would stop program writers from throwing accusations that may be false in the case of Mendelssohn and are certainly false in the case of Brahms. Depending on whether Mendelssohn's G-minor concerto came before this one, this concerto might or might not be the first to dispose of the extended orchestral ritornello toward the beginning of the concerto. In either case, it has four discrete movements played with breaks between them, thus beating Brahms' B-flat to the punch.
My CZcams experiences have pointed out that presuppositions about is great and interesting music have thwarted and stifled access to great and interesting music, that is until . . . CZcams. This is a wonderful work made possible for hearing by a simple upload.
An excellent piece with a lot of originality.
Did he really play this at 19 years old ? Incredible
Super
pas connu vous dites, mais il y en a tellement et là merci youtube j'en ai écouté 1500 au moins et j'en trouve encore de nouveaux, mais je comprend ce que vous voulez dire, celui là est bien
EL CONOCIMIENTO UNIVERSALISTA DE LAS GRANDES OBRAS, DEBE ESTAR SIEMPRE PRESENTE, Y ASÍ REAFIRMAR QUE LA TONALIDAD SE HA IMPUESTO PERMANENTEMENTE, SIN NEGAR LAS INVESTIGACIONES DE LA ATONALIDAD NI EL DODECAFONISMO, QUE SON VÁLIDOS AUNQUE NO LLEGUEN A AGRADAR PLENAMENTE... VEMOS ASÍ EL REGRESO DE LAS OBRAS DE AHORA A LA TONALIDAD; ES CUESTIÓN DE ESTÉTICA.-
98% de la musique tonale du XXème siècle est très peu connue !

The key of the concerto is A minor. The orchestra is the Pilsen Philharmonic. The conductor is Hans Peter Wiesheu, not Wieshev.
