This is a very welcome addition to our Vladigerov collection, Malc. I have a mind-boggling recording of Marc-Andre Hamelin performing this piece.

As i was asking before on the slovak thread. I cant believe the biggest and only publishing store in Taiwan, has stopped printing Works from Tajcevik, Tomasek and Vorisek. And even Anton Steffan! Pissed me off to know that from the biggest music book library. Perhaps these composers are to cold for them ..

Was it ever recorded?

Tony
Both Concertos were recorded within the old LP project which was released in Bulgaria in the 70's. All the orchestral music and the complete concertos were recorded then. None available on CD though, just old LP recordings.

Cheers.

I noticed that nobody on this thread has mentioned the Greek composer Skalkottas yet. I'm kind of curious what y'all think about him; myself, I rather enjoy his music. Does anybody else share this sentiment?

One of my favourites of his piano pieces is his Passacaglia:

I have a considerable number of his pieces, and I think they're great. I prefer much more his approach to new types of music, rather than composers like Stockhausen, Xenakis or so. Although every composer has his place in music, by my point of view.

I agree with you; Skalkottas' music, while avant-garde, is more listenable than the music of other, more famous 20th century composers.
