Offering a concise introduction to one of the most important and
influential piano concertos in the history of Western music, this
handbook provides an example of the productive interaction of music
history, music theory and music analysis. It combines an account of
the work's genesis, Schumann's earlier, unsuccessful attempts to
compose in the genre and the evolving conception of the piano
concerto evident in his critical writing with a detailed yet
accessible analysis of each movement, which draws on the latest
research into the theory and analysis of nineteenth-century
instrumental forms. This handbook also reconstructs the Concerto's
critical reception, performance history in centres including
London, Vienna, Leipzig and New York, and its discography, before
surveying piano concertos composed under its influence in the
century after its completion, including well-known concertos by
Brahms, Grieg, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov, as well as lesser-known
music by Scharwenka, Rubinstein, Beach, Macdowell and Stanford.
