The one-movement concerto in D major for the left hand combines powerful monumental sounds with a slender exotic orchestration.Commissioned by the Austrian pianist Paul Wittgenstein whose right arm had to be amputated following a war injury the one-movement piano setting seems amazingly complete all the same. The technical realisation of this piece is a real challenge for the pianist but the work fascinates by its intensity power sensuality exoticism and beauty.
