Topic: Playful Passion - Piano Concerto No.1 (2021)

Please enjoy this new 21 minutes long piano concerto in one movement. It is in tonal, accessible, early-mid 20th century style. The music is melodic, sensual, emotional, romantic, loving, gentle, dramatic, playful, passionate, story-telling, and has a lot of dialog between the various instruments.
The piece is set for flute, clarinet, bassoon, 2 trumpets, 2 trombones, timpani, strings, and piano.

For the piano, I used PianoTeq 7.4, a customized "NY Steinway D".

The composition is inspired by two short, lesser known melodies written by Freddie Mercury ("The Kiss" (1980) and "Man Made Paradise" (1985)).

Feedback is always welcome!

that was a lot of fun and it's great to hear something so ambitious.  great idea to build an extended composition out of FM's melodies!
