Both concertos are early works and the First was written while MacDowell was a student; it came to the attention of Liszt who thought very highly of it and arranged for its publication, and thus launched MacDowell's career. The composer was a very fine pianist and this shows throughout both works, which abound in virtuosity clearly designed for maximum impact. This coupled with MacDowell's melodic flair and a propensity for Scherzo-like movements results in two of the most immediately appealing works to have graced this series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CD is completed with the 'Second Modern Suite' for solo piano ('modern' as opposed to Baroque), a work contemporary with the concertos where the composer creates a large-scale piece, which while less integrated than a sonata is nevertheless more than a collection of character pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe are delighted to welcome Seta Tanyel, who has already made many acclaimed recordings of neglected Romantic repertoire by Scharwenka and Moszkowski, on her debut with Hyperion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/official_TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD.png?v=1663272176\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePiano Concerto No 1 in A minor Op 15 [27'13]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSeta Tanyel (piano), BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1 Maestoso – Allegro con fuoco[10'48]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2 Andante tranquillo[8'00]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3 Presto[8'25]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSecond Modern Suite Op 14 [23'09]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSeta Tanyel (piano)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4 Praeludium – Andante maestoso[3'24]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5 Fugato[2'10]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6 Rhapsodie[6'41]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7 Scherzino[2'22]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8 Marsch[3'47]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9 Phantasie – Tanz[4'45]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePiano Concerto No 2 in D minor Op 23 [26'40]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSeta Tanyel (piano), BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10 Larghetto calmato – Poco passione[12'30]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11 Presto giocoso[5'10]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12 Largo – Molto allegro[9'00]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HYPERION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47028557283578,"sku":"CDA67165","price":4.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/034571171654.png?v=1736540585","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/en-de\/products\/macdowell-piano-concertos-tanyel-bbc-symphony-orchestra","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
