W.A Mozart Concerto for Basset Clarinet A Major 3. Rondo Allegro

Prelude N°6 also said "Tolling Bells" (but this name was not given from Chopin) is told to have been played at the funeral of the immense composer. It  is taken from a collection of works for beginners with Chopin Music. In spite of this I find it terribly difficult to render. With many different critical points (especially the "senza pedale", after a few bars) . Difficult to mantain the right "accento". Not to mention the final with the "come da lontano" indication. One of my favorite pieces till now, and I think forever.

The Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor, Op. 23 was composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky between November 1874 and February 1875. It was revised in the summer of 1879 and again in December 1888. The first version received heavy criticism from Nikolai Rubinstein, Tchaikovsky's desired pianist. Rubinstein later repudiated his previous accusations and became a fervent champion of the work. It is one of the most popular of Tchaikovsky's compositions and among the best known of all piano concertos.

The first performance of the original version took place on October 25, 1875 in Boston, conducted by Benjamin Johnson Lang and with Bülow as soloist. Bülow had initially engaged a different conductor, but they quarrelled, and Lang was brought in at short notice. According to Alan Walker, the concerto was so popular that Bülow was obliged to repeat the Finale, a fact that Tchaikovsky found astonishing. Although the premiere was a success with the audience, the critics were not so impressed.

Seth conducted the choral movements of Bach’s Cantata No. 140, “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme,” for his DMA Recital on November 16, 2010. Here is the first movement.  

Bach composed the piece for the twenty-seventh Sunday after Trinity and premiered it on November 25, 1731. You can hear the chorale tune, by Philipp Nicolai (1556-1608), sung and played by the sopranos and the horn.
