Raff begins to be known by his large corpus of symphonies - most of them with subtitles - but his concerting literature is abolutely unknown - just as his chamber music. Personnally, I knew only his delicious ode to the spring for piano and orchestra. Here, we have his second cello concert with a very solid writing and architecture, a noble expression. The slow movement is very lyric but with some restraint and the finale is awesome. Thank you for having posted it.

Thanks for your comments. I understand Bo Hyttner's copyright position, and I think that he is perfectly justified; hard-working musicians deserve to be paid and Bo is trying to make a living. Nevertheless, some Sterling-label CDs have been uploaded. Similarly, I know about whom Hyperion shut down and why, as I'm sure do you. Companies have the right to practice "due diligence"; in defiance, some folks desire to make beautiful music available to all music-lovers. It's a "cat and mouse" game! Ted
I just uploaded 'Fée d'amour' without a hitch. I uploaded the ur-Violin Concerto No. 1 a few months back. Apparently Sterling is happy with getting ad revenue from my work, (which suits me just fine), or the waiting period expired. Whatever. However, Tudor gave me a copyright strike for the 1st Cello Concerto and 2nd Violin Concerto last year. Fortunately, I was able to find another platform for the violin concerto, and someone has uploaded a fine live performance of the cello concerto. For some reason, Tudor didn't have any problem with this video, despite the fact that the source for this and the blocked video are the same.
I just had to delete a nice video of the Oehms CD of the Fitzenhagen Cello Concerto No. 2 as soon as I uploaded it. Which is a shame, because there is a dearth of quality cello concertos in the repertoire, especially from the Romantic era, and they aren't going to get exposure from some obscure CD on a podunk label. UA-camrs may not always buy, but some do, and getting the music heard could lead to more frequent performances by more cellists and orchestras.
Johann Rufinatscha I 100 % agree with you. Those recording labels who don't want recordings of the music of lesser known composers be made available on UA-cam, are shortsighted. How else do they expect people to get to know this music? Over the past 3 years, and for the quite forseable future, 80 % of the music I buy are from so-called lesser known composers. Already bought music of Myaskovsky (all 27 his symphonies), Eduard Tubin, Levi Madetoja, Guarnieri, Villa-Lobos, Casella, Malipiero, Jaan Raats, Reimo Kangro, Romualds Kalsons, etc. And have in my sight music of Ferdinand Ries, Raff, Reinecke, Dreaeke, Bruch (his symphonies), Uuno Klami, Erkii Melartin, Jonas Kokkonen, etc. And ALL of this because I was first able for familiarize myself with their music through UA-cam. Without UA-cam I would not have bought music of any of these composers. Thank you therefore for people like you who load this music on UA-cam. You render to classical music and music lovers a great service, more than the recording labels ever will give you credit for.
Im Walde Yep. I'm wondering why they didn't take this one down. I now have one strike. They also took down the Violin Concerto No. 2. I'm thinking of making this private for a few months.

Thanks for this upload! It fills a void in the online discography of an underrated and unjustly neglected composer!

Very enjoyable and melodic concerto. I will check out his other concertos. Thank you for uploading this.

Thank you much for sharing this beautiful gem of a cello concerto. I am enjoying it immensely.
Just one more thing. I think that Raff's slow movements are the most beautiful in the repertoire.
Sublime, j'ai adoré chaque mouvement 🙏🎶💓🎶✨

Neither - keep your head down, fly under the radar, and keep "feeding" us all wonderful and [often] rarely heard music!!!

Magnifico Daniel Muller-Smith. Aéreo, seguro. delicado, alegre y siempre a tempo. Gracias.

Ewald Steyn 27 Symphonies?! Wow, I have some catching up to do.
@@gasparocelloman9852 I think I've uploaded a couple. Some of my favorite Myaskovsky symphonies are the 5th, 15th, 21st, and 27th.
wonderfully completed concerto
sublime
The D minor Concerto is more dramatic, but this one has some beautiful melodies and some very catchy rhythmic gyrations.
Cello Concerto no. 1 got taken down?
Im Walde Yep. I'm wondering why they didn't take this one down. I now have one strike. They also took down the Violin Concerto No. 2. I'm thinking of making this private for a few months.
The Stadlmair recording of Raff 3 also got taken down ua-cam.com/video/BLrheAFSyf0/v-deo.html
Seems that the Tudor Label is taking the videos down?
Im Walde Yep. It seems that they have gotten active again. Maybe they got some legal advice to start a crackdown. It does seem rather random, though.
