    This reminds me of a little-known fact about Beethoven ... he too was a magnificent organist in his youth, and Widor's piano concerto reminds me a great deal of what late Beethoven might have sounded like had he stayed with the organ longer and lived a quiet, peaceful life in Bonn ... he would not be the Beethoven we know, but Widor's level of compositional skill falls right in there, and he did his homework ... I hear the echoes of many Beethoven piano sonatas (last movements of both the "Moonlight" and the "Appassionata" in particular, along with the first movement of Opus 111) in the first movement ... account for fifty years of harmonic advancement that Beethoven opened the door to as well. Now, nothing would be be more unfortunate than a back-to-back hearing of Beethoven and Widor -- for WIDOR, of course -- but still, Widor standing alone stands strongly, a good student of a great master, and shows himself to wonderful advantage in the slow movement. I have never heard anyone do so much with the "church cadence" that students of the keyboard learn almost at the beginning ... I almost wanted to sing "A-a-a-a-men!" many times as a church musician myself ... such a simple progression, but Widor captured why it was used as it is!

    He was Albert Schweitzer's teacher, for whatever that's worth. I think the slow movement here is beautiful. He deserves to be heard more.

    The collapse of the Second Empire en 1870 brought a condemnation of the frivolous music of Offenbach and the cult for symphonic and chamber music. This concerto dates from 1876 and is one of the first masterpieces of this renewed taste. Most important, he was written by a composer known mainly for its organ works. But do you know that Widor wrote a treatise on orchestration?

    I'm glad to have heard this but I suspect it might outstay its welcome on repeated listening. As others have pointed out there is much more to Widor than the (in)famous Toccata. His Fourth and Sixth Organ Symphonies are well worth exploring but they must be played by somebody who has Widor's music in their blood - Ben Van Oosten and Suzanne Chaisemartin would be my joint first choice

    I listened thru curiosity and cos i admire the performers, but what a ghastly, time-wasting noise. I feel sorry for the soloist spending any time learning it when he could be playing real music, and i say this as one who loves little-known, unusual repertoire! Widor's Toccata, still seems the only work of his worth listening to.

      NOSEhow2LIV I feel sorry for the listener spending little time getting to know a work, to be honest and feeling compelled to dismiss it summarily immediately afterwards. But I uploaded a, to my ears, much superior rendition of this work on my channel. Give it a try.

      NOSEhow2LIV You must have been listening through your nose. This grand piano concerto is remarkable in that having been composed in 1876, it is ahead of its time for its surprising use of syncopation and atonal chords in its orchestration. I wish I can listen to it in an actual live performance to experience first hand its rich texture and grand scale.
