Following the form of what can be considered a standard concerto Concerto (from the latin concertus, from certare, to strive, also confused with concentus ), in its most general sense, is a name for a piece of classical music in which there are two distinct groups of instruments, one larger than the other. The most usual kind of concerto is one that pits a solo instrument against a full orchestra in three movements. The term appears in the beginning of the 17th century, at first as a title of no very definite meaning, but which early acquired a sense justified by its etymology and became applied chiefly to compositions in which unequal instrumental or vocal forces are brought into opposition.

Extractions: Schubert, Schubert/Liszt, Liszt ; Evgeny Kissin, RFH, 2 nd March 2003 (MB) There can be no doubt that Evgeny Kissin possesses one of the most dazzling techniques of any pianist today (only Pletnev matches it); the question, however, perhaps asked more of Kissin today than other great pianist, is to what purpose he puts that technique. It is certainly not at the service of the music at least if his wayward performance of Schuberts B flat major, D960 sonata is anything to go by. It was fascinating to look at the concentration on Mr Kissins face as he meandered through its first two movements; for, that same concentration distilled itself into boredom for the listener. I dont think I have ever heard the opening movement taken so slowly (even allowing for the fact he took the repeat) every note was heavily phrased, to the extent that the movement became fragmentary under the intrusiveness of his finger work. Even allowing for the fact that most of those two movements are written in pp or ppp Mr Kissin made little effort to differentiate between the dynamics. Where there should have been a ravishing keyboard colour there was actually none; where there should have been a poetic sweep to the playing there was just a sombre, leaden descriptiveness. If the last two movements fared better a skittish, although hardly mercurial, Scherzo and an opaque, but usually dramatic Allegro it was partly because Schuberts Leonine writing was here more in touch with Mr Kissins own mind frame.

Extractions: The Associated Press Thursday, August 14, 2003 New York Evgeny Kissin sang his first tune before he spoke his first word, started tinkering on the piano at age 2 and became a sensation at 13 with a Chopin concert in his native Moscow. advertisement Today, at 31, the gentleman with the lionlike mane is arguably the world's greatest pianist. This month, he released an all-Brahms album, including the five-movement "F Minor Sonata," a huge work that composer Robert Schumann considered symphonic in scope. In performances, he demonstrates a masterful insight into the compositions, remaining in complete command of the music with thoughtful phrasing and thunderous outbursts. "To understand music, we use both intellect and intuition. You must be intelligent enough, but you also need to have an actual feeling from music to be able to understand it," Kissin said in crisply enunciated, Russian-accented English during a recent interview. "You try to understand what the composer wanted as much as you possibly can. ... Of course as a child I used to rely on intuition only for the simple reason that I was only a child."
