Piano Concerto
Concerto in F major was written in 1925 on a commission from the conductor and director Walter Damrosch.
The concerto is in the traditional three movements:
1. Allegro
2. Adagio - Andante con moto
3. Allegro agitato
There are strong thematic links between the outer movements, while the second movement is the most obviously jazz-influenced. There exists in each movement a very subtle structural integrity that is not immediately apparent to the listener or even the player, but the structure rivals that of any classical or romantic composer.
