Some commenters on here (no names) seem to think that this is derivative, copying Chopin. Well this concerto was composed seven years before Chopin's two, and Chopin dedicated his first concerto to Kalkbrenner. So who derived what from whom exactly?
Sin duda la deuda de Chopin con autores como Hummel y Kalkbrenner es muy grande y poco reconocida. Pero Chopin sí era un gran pianista y un hombre agradecido por eso admiró a estos dos autores muchísimo y recomendó sus enseñanzas. Es importante recalcar que las orquestaciones de Hummel y Kalkbrenner son mucho más sutiles que las del propio Chopin No doubt Chopin's debt with authors like Hummel and Kalkbrenner is very large and little recognized. But Chopin himself was a great pianist and a grateful man so admired these two authors very much and recommended his teachings. Importantly orchestrations Hummel and Kalkbrenner are much more subtle than the own Chopin
While reading "A life and times Fryderyk Chopin", I drop by here to listen to some music of Kalkbrenner and I'm very, very positively surprised. Wonderful music!
It certainly takes a conscious effort to listen to these piano concertos by the lesser known composers without prejudice. Most of us have become somewhat jaded in our outlook because we have been thoroughly persuaded by the excellence of “The Masters.” So must we be wiling to hear and receive these pieces on their own merit and respect the gift and talent of those who have, evidently, sincerely applied themselves to cultivate their unique gifts. With that being said; it is certainly to our credit to open our minds and hearts and enjoy the joy of creativity expressed by those who(in many cases) were contemporaries of the more celebrated geniuses we rightly love and admire.

brillantezza, spirito, varietà tematica, varietà armonica, figurazioni ritmiche di ogni tipo... cosa si può volere di più da un concerto romantico-classico!
Kalkbrenner has always been one of my favourite composers, its a shame people dont take more of his works into their repertoire. I would love to see more chamber music and concertos of Kalkbrenners on youtube.
a marvelous work by the unfamilir kalkbrenner - his mastery of the instrument and composition is evident in the score - he should be judged on his own merits - comparisons to other composers is absurd - close the eyes and open the mind (and the ears) - thanks hv
While it's known that Chopin was greatly influenced by Kalkbrenner still crazy how easily you can map so many sections of this to Chopin's works; like the passage from 11:06 is easily recognizable in Chopin's F minor concerto
Этот концерт похож больше на первый концерт Шопена. Лирическая главная партия в миноре, а разработка начинается, как и у Шопена, с мажорного проведения главной партии. (У Шопена в до мажоре.) И патетическое октавное вступление тоже, как у Шопена. Конечно, Шопен был под сильным влиянием этого автора. 😊 Единственное, что их отличает, это то, что у этого автора начало чисто польское, но дальше - все австрийское, вплоть до разработки. А у Шопена все польское. :)
"The best pianist in Europe. The only one I am not worthy to tie his shoes of" "A giant who crushes all Herzes and Czernys underneath his feet, including myself" - Chopin in a letter to his friend Tytus Woyciechowski.
kakbrenner wanted chopin to study with him for 3 years, chopin refused and eventually graduated from his obssesion of kalkbrenner (at least to some extent)
I found this piece again after more than 3 or 4 years. I love this kind of virtuosity, this inspire me. It's an great answer for my feelings, among anothers.
Thanks so much for sharing this magnificent, beautiful music! I personally love this concerto and I would be happy to learn more about this composer. Thanks again!
Thank you, HenriVieuxtemps, for sharing this with all of us. Chopin considered Maestro Kalkbrenner - "The best pianist of his time." This piece is wonderful. Kalkbrenner was a great Pianist, but not as great a composer as Chopin. During his life, Kalkbrenner experienced great loss, sadness, and other difficulties. Such was the case for dear Chopin, however, Chopin's heart, spirit, and soul was richer and more sensitive. Thus, more lyrical, tender, and human. Yet, in so many of Chopin's writings, we see Chopin's greatest talent and character- his humility. Chopin wrote of Kalkbrenner: "I am not worthy to even tie his shoelaces." Remarkable -no? Thank you again, HenriVieuxtemps.
Louis Moreau Gottschalk: "In 1844, then very young, I gave in Paris a soirée to which all the illustrious pianists of the period were invited, among others Kalkbrenner. I played Chopin’s concerto in E Minor, Thalberg's Fantasia on Semiramide, and a fantasia by Liszt. The next day I went to thank Kalkbrenner for having come to hear me. This attention softened a little the generally sour disposition of the old pianist, who did not forgive the new school for knowing something; he took my hand and said with the air of majestic condescension: The style is good, as for the rest there is nothing astonishing; you are my grandchild (alluding to Stamaty, who was his pupil), but for god's sake, who advised you to play such music. Chopin! I hardly pardon you; but Liszt and Thalberg, what rhapsodies! Why did you not play one of my pieces? They are beautiful, please everybody and are classical".
This is amazing . Why on earth has this piano concerto never been played by todays great pianists. Would be in awe if Valentina Lisitsa were to get her hands on this. There is a lot of Chopin and Hummel in this wonderful concerto. There is also an element of the Irish composer John Field in this as well.
In my opinion, that's in full romantic period 1800-1850. Hummel, Kalkbrenner, Chopin and other composers from that ages are envolved in a circle of similar structures,phrases and emotions. It's seems chopin, it seems others; by the way, each one give to his compositions and at least to us, in ours days, the privilege of a true experience to reach our souls. I love chopin concertos, I know every single note of them, and when I listen other composers from that ages and reminds me Chopin, I only can smile. Chopin itself in his letters wrote a lot of his work, he hope that can satisfy his public; a true sense of modesty. ( sorry for my english,I'm italian)
Как жаль, что эта чудесная музыка почти забыта и не исполняется. Благодарность моя исполнителям этого чуда. Хочется ещё слушать музыку прошлого, редко исполняемую и незаслуженно забытую.
There might e a medication for this condition you have! I've suffered from it since I was five years old! So far, NOTHING has helped--I still love classical music and yes, this piece too--simply awesome!
The crossed out score in the beginning nearly gave me a heart attack thinking my phone screen cracked. 😂 Chopin played this to friends during summer vacations when he was 14 y.o., he wrote in a letter to his family about it.
Chopin E-minor concerto much? This concerto is very beautiful and a masterpiece of sorts. I don't care what others think, so be it... One can see how Kalkbrenner has taken the proto-Romanticism of the Mozart/Beethoven school and pushed it further to suit his own ends... He deserves credit.
Thankfully I know nothing about music which allows me to enjoy it, this piece in particular. I feel rather sorry for the highly educated musicologists who do not seem to be able to enjoy any of it.
+maestoso-allegro I am one of these nit picky guys, and I have to say, this concerto is nothing special, nothing original, nothing that's really worth mentioning when talking about masterpieces. However it's still nice and enjoyable.
+maestoso-allegro This is all very subjective, but this concerto really is just boring and doesn't seem like it has much to say. Mendelssohn's piano concerto no.1, while not having as much depth as say Beethoven's concertos, is at the very least enjoyable to listen to. It has a high energy opening that is second to none and extremely beautiful lyrical moments scattered throughout the first and second movement. The Kalkbrenner concerto seems to be a compilation of all the piano techniques without any interesting musical ideas
I hope all of those critics on here can play this... doubt it..... !! and I personally enjoy it, and that is what music is about, how it affects the individual. I would say that this music speaks, and that is all that is important.......
The Lord preserve us from music snobs, particularly when they use bad language. I for one am very glad this highly enjoyable concerto has been preserved whatever the "judgement of history" may decree, and however "musically poor" it is in the eyes (ears?) of someone with a degree in piano performance. I am glad there are some open-minded people who also enjoy it. I have just discovered this composer through the sort-of-autobiography (La Musica è Pericolosa) of Nicola Piovani, a brilliant pianist and composer of the music for the film "Life is Beautiful" and many other Italian films. A music-lover since his teens when a present of the Goldberg Variations set him off on his musical journey, he values all kinds of music, from Yael Naim, through Verdi to Bach. As he says "There's a time to listen in silence to Bach and a time to dance a samba". Emphatically NOT a music snob. I was a music snob 50 years ago. Thank God I've grown out of it.
For context, 1823 is the same year that Beethoven published his Diabelli Variations. The piece that is generally considered to have germinated the Romantic style - Weber's Invitation to the Dance - was from 1819. Kalkbrenner's style represents the crossroads where people were trying to figure out what direction music would go in, but he also represents the continuation and evolution of the improvisatory tradition of Mozart. The harmonic innovation of Chopin and the no-holds-barred virtuosity of Liszt were not in the picture yet. Critics, then and now, called his themes vapid. Okay, he wasn't as gifted of a melodist as Mozart. Who else was?
Why do people constantly compare this magnificent man (Whom I just discovered a couple days ago who is just originally astonishing) to Chopin? Yeah sure there are similarities between all composers but like I said, this is original stuff and its euphoric relating to this Parisians virtuosic and salon(ic) style. and to top things off, this man was well before Chopin's time besides the overlap of the composers years. So it makes no sense to compare this man to Chopin but the other way around, no?
Дмитрий Фамилиев And my friend I say this: you know what, I completely and utterly agree with you! And you make a great point, despite the influences of the composer(s), the ultimate mannerisms of the period is whats most potent. But then again, each composer, as in the titling word itself, does create and innovate new pathways to euphoria if you are picking up what I'm laying down.
CziffraTheThird Innovation is not an end in itself, but only the result of the creative search for means of expressing the feelings of the author. That's why we with the same pleasure as listening to Bach, Buxtehude,Monteverdi or Mozart, and traditional in all senses Hummel.
I find this very interesting, because some sequences directly remind one of the Chopin contertos, however, with less atmosphere and invention, a little less beauty, and, although the Chopen concerts are not really the pinnacles of piano concertos, this is still intended to be a big praise as Chopin is one of my favourites. Thanks for posting it, I will go on to listen to others as well.
What happened to the crossed out bars on the score before the piano's entry in movement 1? Is that an older version of the piece that is not performed today but happens to be contained in this score?
@Martin Baldwin-Edwards Makes much sense now. I guess the orchestra and conductor can just cut the orchestral part in a way that suits the specific performance, without the need of creating a version for it.
He wrote tremendous amounts of music, and sadly almost nothing has survived.. He considered himself to be "The last classical composer" and on the same height as Beethoven and Haydn
We can quibble about this and that but it remains that we should remember, purchase , and play more of Kalkbrenner's music. He had some genuine things to say in his music. And he was extremely important in his day so the well educated person will listen to his music to put him and more famous others in true context.

So what, Chopin is the greatest harmonist/melodist of all time
haha u took the day to comment everyone on this video, im laughing as i read comments and see u burn everyone lul
I believe that composer's name is spelled "Schubert".
"Chopin is the greatest harmonist/melodist of all time." Very debatable.

The reason why there is a lot of "Chopin" is because Kalkbrenner was Chopin's teacher.
