This is insane! The virtuosity of both the piano and orchestral parts is thrilling, but also opens up really fantastic sonorities. Your dynamic extremes and crescendos/decrescendos were used to such great effect too. Your use of dissonance is so brilliant, and even when the dissonances are harsh they sound great and totally work, like the section with those parallel dissonant chords between the chimes and piano (so cool!). Bravo Kofi!
This is a clever and cheeky concerto - allusions to many other masterpieces throughout. I like it! And what's this at 2:15 - Richard Wagner snuck onto the stage with his Magic Fire Music from Die Walküre :)
Looking at the comments while having to watch two ads makes me so excited to listen to the piece
I hope the piece didnt dissapoint:)
@@kofiLjunggren it absolutely didn’t great job!
Very reminiscent of rachmaninoff..... but very extraordinary 👌!!
Thanks!:)
Love the orchestration in the opening! It's so bombastic :D I'll give the whole thing a thorough listen when I get the chance
Thanks!:)
Introt låter som en blandning av Schumanns och Griegs pianokonsert.
Stycket är väldigt intressant! Bra jobbat.
Tack Johny!
I thought so too
