Piano Concerto (Burgmüller)

The Piano Concerto Op. 1 in F-sharp minor is a concerto for piano and orchestra written by Norbert Burgmüller in the years 1828–1829. It premiered on 14 January in 1830 and was performed by Burgmüller himself at the piano.

Because of the early accidental death of Burgmüller at the age of 26 – he drowned in a spa in Aachen most likely due to an epileptic seizure – it is his only piano concerto.[1][2]

Background edit

The premiere was on 14 January 1830 in Kassel with Burgmüller at the piano. In 1833 Burgmüller became friends with Felix Mendelssohn, who performed the solo part in Düsseldorf on 3 May 1834.[3][4]

Composition edit

The orchestra includes 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones, kettledrums and strings. It is written in three-movement concerto form:[5]

  1. Allegro ma non troppo
  2. Larghetto con moto
  3. Allegro moderato
