Pyotr Tchaikovsky - Piano Concerto No. 1 in B♭ minor 1st movement

Young Estonian pianist ARKO NARITS performs Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto in B♭ minor op. 23 (1st movement: Allegro non troppo e molto maestoso—Allegro con spirito). Conductor EDMAR TUUL & Tallinn Music High School's Symphony Orchestra, recorded live on 6th of April 2017 at Estonia Concert Hall in Tallinn, Estonia. Video and audio: Marek Vilba About the concerto: The Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor, Op. 23, was composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (7 May 1840 – 6 November 1893) 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 movement is initiated with four emphatic B-flat minor chords, which lead to a lyrical and passionate theme in D-flat major. This subsidiary theme is heard three times, the last of which is preceded by a piano cadenza, and never appears again throughout the movement. The introduction ends in a subdued manner. The exposition proper then begins in the concerto's tonic minor key, with a Ukrainian folk theme based on a melody that Tchaikovsky heard performed by blind beggar-musicians at a market in Kamenka (near Kiev). The second subject group consists of two alternating themes: the first is mournful and plaintive, featuring some of the melodic contours from the introduction. This is answered by a smoother and more consoling second theme, played by the strings and set in the subtonic key (A-flat major) over a pedal point, before a more turbulent reappearance of the woodwind theme, this time re-enforced by driving piano arpeggios, gradually builds to a tumultuous climax in C minor. After a pause, the answering "reassurance" theme closes the exposition in A-flat major. The development section transforms this theme into an ominously building sequence, punctuated with snatches of the first subject material. After a flurry of piano octaves, fragments of the "plaintive" theme are revisited, before piano and orchestra take turns to introduce a dramatic descending melody, described by Marina Frolova-Walker as "expansive and cathartic". The recapitulation features an abridged version of the first subject, working around to C minor, in which key the second subject group proceeds as before. In the recapitulation, the consoling second theme is (initially) omitted, and instead the first theme repeats, with a reconstruction of the expositional climactic build, this time in B-flat major. The excitement is cut short by an interrupted cadence and an extensive piano cadenza, the second half of which contains subdued snatches of the second subject group's first theme in the work's original minor key. The major is restored when the orchestra re-enters with the second subject group's previously omitted "reassurance" theme, ushering in a triumphant and optimistic coda, concluding with a drum roll.
