Frederic
Chopin's Piano Concertos
in e minor op. 11 and f
minor op. 21 were written
when the composer had
just barely entered his
twenties. Since he needed
effective, virtuoso works
for his major concert
appearances with
orchestral accompaniment,
he decided to simply
write them himself.
Although it is clear that
the piano part always
holds center stage in
these pieces, Chopin
never degrades the
orchestra by turning it
into a stereotypical
cue-giver. This is
confirmed by the
imaginatively
orchestrated tutti
transition in the first
movement, the lengthy
string tremolo in the
middle movement and the
col legno passage in the
finale.The first
performance of the
f-minor concerto took
place in Warsaw on 17
March 1830. The first
edition of the score was
published in 1879 by
Breitkopf & Hartel in
Leipzig. The present
edition for two pianos by
Ignaz Friedmann was first
issued in 1913 in the
framework of the
12-volume Chopin edition
for which the Polish
pianist undertook a
careful evaluation of the
sources.

Imag
es of the sea figure
prominently throughout my
life and memories: from
holidays on the Atlantic
coast during my Canadian
childhood to my current
Baltic home, and the
imagined, only later
experienced Mediterranean
of my ancestral heritage.
As an immigrant (son of
an immigrant) bound to
two northern countries,
the sea is emblematic of
my twin homelands, from
the expanses of water
surrounding them to those
separating them. A Mari
usque ad Mare. The sea is
also an enduring image of
the unknown, of expanses
unexplored, of the raw
power of nature and, for
too many currently, of
terror holding a hope of
refuge - or the pain of
loss. Such disparate
ideas were captured for
me in the seascapes of
the New York painter
MaryBeth Thielhelm, whom
I met in 2008 during a
residency on the Gulf of
Mexico. Her vast,
abstract, nearly
monochromatic depictions
of imaginary seas in
wildly varying moods were
the catalyst for a
concerto where the piano
is frequently far from a
hero battling a
collective, but rather
acts as a channel for
elemental forces surging
up from the orchestra,
floating - sometimes
barely so - on its
constantly shifting
surface. There are few
themes to speak of,
beyond a handful of
iconic ideas that
periodically cycle
upward. Rather, the
piano's material is
largely an ornamentation
of the more primal
rhythmic and harmonic
impulses from the
orchestra below - a
poetic interpretation, if
you will, of the more
immediate experience of
facing the vastness of
some unknown body of
water. The title
Nameless Seas is borrowed
from one of Thielhelm's
exhibitions, as are those
of the four movements,
which are bridged
together into two halves
of roughly equal weight -
one rhapsodic and free,
the other more
single-minded and direct,
separated only by a short
breath. The opening
movement, Nocturne, is
predominantly calm, if
brooding, darkness and
light alternating
throughout. Lyrical
arabesques sparkle over
gently lapping
cross-currents in the
strings and mirrored
timpani, the piano's full
power only rarely
deployed. The waves
gradually build, drawing
in the full orchestra for
a meeting of forces in
Land and Sea, a brighter,
more warmly lyrical scene
that unfolds in series of
dreamlike, sometimes even
nostalgic visions, which
for me carry strong
memories of sitting on
rocks above surging
Atlantic waves. The third
movement, Wake, is a
fast, perpetual-motion
texture of glinting,
darting rhythms and
sudden shafts of light,
with a prominent part for
the steel drums, limning
the piano's quicksilver
figurations. An ecstatic
climax crashes into a
solo cadenza that grows
progressively calmer and
more introspective rather
than virtuosic. Much of
the tension finally
releases into Unclaimed
Waters, a drifting,
meditative seascape in
which the piano is
progressively engulfed by
a series of ever-taller
waves, ultimately
dissolving into a
tolling, rippling
continuum of sound.
It has been a great
privilege to realize such
a long-held dream as this
piece, and to write it
for not one, but two
great pianists.
Risto-Matti Marin and
Angela Hewitt, both of
whose friendship and
support have been
unfailing and humbling,
share the dedication.
Nameless Seas was
commissioned by the
PianoEspoo festival and
Canada's National Arts
Centre, with the
premieres in Ottawa and
Helsinki led by Hannu
Lintu and Olari Elts.
Thanks are due also to
the Jenny and Antti
Wihuri fund, whose
generous grant provided
me with much-needed time,
and Escape to Create in
Seaside, Florida, the
source to which I
returned to do a large
part of the work.

Composed
in 1876, Dvorákâ??s
only piano concerto has
been overshadowed by his
other two concertos, for
violin and violoncello,
respectively. Performers
and editors have often
attempted to upgrade this
pianistically unassuming
work by adding
stylisations of their
own. Our Urtext edition
revaluates the sources,
frees the work from
subsequent interventions
and presents it to full
advantage in its
authentic
form.
The
principal source of our
new edition is the first
complete print issued by
the publisher Hainauer in
1883, which has been
meticulously collated
with the autograph. The
anonymous original piano
reduction is so full of
mistakes that editor
Robbert van Steijn
decided instead to
present the version by
Karel Å olc.

The
roller coaster of
opinions - worthless,
absolutely unplayable
(claims Nikolaj
Rubinstein, basically
Tchaikovsky's desired
pianist for his Concerto
in B flat minor);
brilliant, magnificent
(Hans von Bulow, then
first performer and
dedicatee of the work) -
demonstrates the work's
initially ambivalent
reception. Tchaikovsky's
Piano Concerto No.1 is
one of the most powerful
and popular compositions
of the classical music
repertoire altogether;
and it is also quite
unconventional and runs
counter to the norms of
the time. Though it may
seem strange to us today,
let us recall that during
his lifetime, Tchaikovsky
was regarded disputable
abroad (and especially in
Germany), was considered
an ultra-modern Russian
composer, and was even
accused of being a
musical nihilist and
primitivist. But one
glance at the score of
the piano concerto
suffices to reveal its
truly amazing character

Score of
the Danish Composer's
Concerto for Piano and
Orchestra written in
1996. Bent Sorensen
writes: 'The title of
this piano concerto came,
as usual, very early to
me, when my thoughts
about the work had
started to circulate, but
before 'real' music was
written down. I held on
to the Italian title,
even though its
association with Vivaldi
had no influence on my
music, and even when
German, French, English,
and Danish titles
covering almost the same
content -'Nachtmusik',
'Nocturne', 'By Night',
'Om Natten', were just
about to get the upper
hand. The piano concerto
has, then, in my opinion,
something to do with
night, but to describe
this further is at least
as difficult to me as it
is to defend the final
Italian title against
those which were
rejected. The Piano
Concerto is in two
movements. The first,
swarming, is perhaps the
mystery of the night, and
the second perhaps the
dreams of the night; with
this, however, I have
already given the
concerto a more
programmatic content than
I can defend. Each
movement ends with a
cadenza and perhaps the
last of those - the
ending of the work that
is - is inspired by a
sequence from Bruce
Chatwin's wonderful book
'The Viceroy of Ouidah':
Or the Amazons howling.
'No, No, No. It was not
the leopard that killed
him. Not the buffalo that
killed him. It was night.
Night that killed
him!'.

Finally
performable again Eduard
Franck's Piano Concerto
in D minor Op. 13 is the
first major orchestral
work by this Mendelssohn
pupil. The pianist,
already celebrated at a
young age, had early
plans for the piano
concerto that he
completed at the latest
in 1846. Contemporary
critics emphasized the
catchy motives and the
balanced relationship of
solo instrument to the
orchestra. Ignaz
Moscheles was impressed
by the noble manner, the
poetic ideas, and the
orchestration. Thanks to
the kind support of the
Accademia di Santa
Cecilia, in whose library
the orchestral parts,
once thought to be lost,
are preserved, the work
can be introduced for the
first time in the present
edition.

Composed in
the late summer of 1876,
Dvorak's first effort at
a full-blown concerto
shows signs of an unusual
amount of revision in the
composer's hand -
especially for the solo
piano part. This might
explain the delay in the
concerto's premiere,
which was given at the
Provisional Theatre in
Prague on March 24, 1878
with Karel Slavkovsky as
soloist accompanied by
the Provisional Theatre
Orchestra under the baton
of Adolf Cech. The
composer himself wrote: I
see I am unable to write
a Concerto for a
virtuoso; I must think of
other things. The
ungainly solo part no
doubt also played a role
in the work's dely in
publication, which didn't
take place until 1883.
Even after this, and
despite much beauty in
the music itself,
performances were scarce
due to the difficulty and
charchter of the solo
part. The solo part was
revised heavily by the
Czech pianist Vilem Kurz
(1872-1945), whose
version was premired by
his daughter Ilona
KurzovA! and the Czech
Philharmonic on December
9, 1919 and is the one
most often performed
today. This new study
score is a digitally
enhanced reissue of the
full score first
published in 1956 by the
Czech State Publishers as
part of the Dvorak
collected works, edited
by Jiri Berkovec and
Karel Solc, which
includes both the
composer's original solo
part and the re-arranged
one made by Kurz. Unlike
