                     Piano Concerto #4 in C-minor
                                by: Azo

This is my fourth piano concerto, and honestly the one I like the best. 
The other three are much slower, and a lot less technical than this piece.
Piano Concerto #4 has much flashier piano work, and some excellent
phrasing that my other piano concerti lack.

I grew up playing the piano, and I am proud to say that is now not only my
true love in life, but also a career.  Over the years, I've had many
opportunities to play my original compositions on the stage, and they've
always fared well with even the most difficult of critics.

What you're hearing is not the full score from the original concerto, but
a scaled down first movement.  The piece is actually over half an hour
long,and is comprised of four distinct movements.  I will,time permitting,
work on this track some more, individualizing the instruments, and track
the entire score.  However, I'm expecting that work to take well over a
thousand hours, so enjoy this mini-release of my classical work.

I took influences from several known artists for this work.  The opening
stanza is very remnent of one of Beethoven's Piano Concerti, and the
opening Allegro brilliante theme is derived from a Chopin Etude.  The
Lento section has its theme following the tradition of George Gershwin,
though it is ultimately original.  The Andante sostenuto in the original
work is almost seven minutes long alone, and draws on some of the finer
work of J.S. Bach.  The Allegro sections are original, though they do lean
toward the early works of Chopin in speed and chord progression.  All of
the music, in general, is original. 

It's almost impossible to write music today that has not already been
presented to the world in some form or fashion.  The best we can hope to
do as musicians is present a new take on a theme, but always remember
where it came from.  Without the influences of the past, music would not
be as we know it today.
