The Leviathan Of Piano Concertos

MUSIC Posted: February 26, 2019 9:03 am

“At over seventy minutes, [Busoni’s Piano Concerto of 1904] may be the longest concerto ever written for any instrument. It may also be the most challenging. It demands nearly superhuman stamina and virtuosity of its soloist, who plays almost continuously throughout and whose part is fiendishly difficult.” – New York Review of Books
