Alec Rowley's Miniature Concerto for Piano and Orchestra. This edition is scored for Piano with a second Piano reduction of the original Orchestral Score.

The Boosey Masterworks Library is a truly fantastic collection of popular works from the orchestral repertoire presented in clearly notated and meticulously documented scores.This volume presents the full orchestral score of Rachmainov’s first two piano concertos which remain ever popular in the concert pianist’s repertoire the second piano concerto even more so. The first two piano concertos frame a prolonged period of self-examination and doubt in Rachmaninov’s life his earlier works were not received with great acclaim. However his resurgence as a composer on the international concert platform was brought about by his composition of thePiano Concerto No.2 in C Minor Op.18 which since its first performance remains one of the most important and popular works in the repertoire. This full orchestral score is a wonderful resource for study and perusal purposes and is clearly presented making it easy to read and follow.Note that the revised version (written in 1917) of the first piano concerto is that which is presented in this score.

Interestingly there are two different versions of Prokofiev’s second piano concerto the first written between 1912 and 1913 the second written in 1923. However during the Russian Civil War the original manuscript of the Concerto was destroyed in a fire in Prokofiev’s apartment in St. Petersburg. In 1923 he recreated the score from memory effectively composing the second edition of the work which was very different. Prokofiev wrote to a friend: I have so completely rewritten the second concerto that it might be considered the fourth (his third piano concerto having been written in the meantime).At the time of composition the concerto's wild temperamentleft some exalted whereas others were horrified by the jarring and at the time futuristic sound. Today however it is generally recognised as a masterpiece and is one of the most virtuosic works in the piano concerto repertoire.Available here is the Hawkes Pocket Score edition (No.877) of Prokoviev’s virtuosic Piano Concerto No.2 in G minor Op.16 and is ideal for study and perusal usage.
