Bachtrack top ten: Piano Concertos

Danny Riley, 11th October

We take a look at the ten most popular piano concertos of recent years.

The BBC Symphony Orchestra and Sir Andrew Davis play Jonathan Lloyd, Brahms and Tippett

Chris Garlick, 12th April

Friday night’s BBC SO concert certainly drew in a large crowd, despite the presence of two unfamiliar works: a new one by Jonathan Lloyd and Tippett’s Fourth Symphony from 1977. The addition of the ever-popular pianist Stephen Hough to the lineup, playing the one of the most challenging concertos in the repertoire, Brahms’ First, must have helped the numbers.
