Misc. Notes HMB is probably late in determining date of publication (as it often is with non-German publications); the work is more likely to have been published in around 1831 (one should check Bibliographie de la France), or if the concerto is known to have been composed in 1832, then probably first published ca.1833.

Navigation etc.

  • No.1 - Full score was located (in the Library of Congress?) only fairly recently (rather like that of Stenhammar's first piano concerto after most copies of its full score were lost.)
  • No.3 - string parts lost - only reconstruction available! The piano solo arrangement is probably identical to the second of the 3 Andantes romantiques, Op.13.
