Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor, Op. 23 — I. Allegro non troppo e molto maestoso — complete two-piano reduction

About this work

The opening sets orchestral calls against broad piano chords before the principal theme arrives.

In this complete reduction, the first piano carries the solo part while the second represents the essential orchestral writing.

Set shared entries and tempo changes first, then balance the chords so the orchestral keyboard does not cover the soloist.
