The first of Joaquin Rodrigo's attempts at composition for the concerto genre Concierto De Aranjuez quickly became the most popular and recognizable of his works. Written for Solo Guitar and Orchestra it reveals the composer's great affinity for those two mediums as well as his reverence for the long-standing traditions of Spanish Classical music. It was composed in 1939 after Rodrigo's return to Madrid from France (where he had fled to escape the Spanish Civil War) and premiered to great success in 1940.The Concierto De Aranjuez is notable for the way in which Rodrigo managed to wed unusual instrumentation of the relatively small voice ofthe solo guitar to that of the full orchestra. With a nod to Spanish folk music and straightforward lyrical disposition it is an extremely imaginative piece with meandering melody and distinctive colour throughout.Eulenberg's celebrated and highly authoritative miniature score is the definitive reference source for study performance preparation or simply for those with a love of the great orchestral works.

Grieg composed this Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in 1868 for himself to play however Edmund Neupert played the first public performance in Copenhagen on April 3 1869.

It is a dramatic and dynamic work that is never flat using constant development flourishes and crescendo from the first movement to the last.

'Beggars' Palace' is the name of a fictive railway station a metaphor that can evoke many associations for example as a place from which one journeys on where one is forced to stay for a short or long period or a place where one simply gets stuck and must watch others journey on. The fictive station has something worn-out and shabby about it but the worn and shabby can have its own poetry and beauty. At the end the music stands still for a minute or two while a voice talks about Beggars' Palace. 'Beggars' Palace' was composed in January 2000 for the Aarhus Symphony Orchestra. Anders Nordentoft

Schumann’s Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in A Minor Op. 54 is fine example of Romanticism and has a dynamic mood like much of his work. There is a sober atmosphere though dignified melody runs throughout but overall a unified and structured piece that broke away from the trend for virtuosic displays. Completed in 1845 when he appended two movements to the revised Fantasie; it is one of a handful of larger works by Schumann. The finished concerto premiered on New Year's Day of 1846 by the composer's wife and pianist Clara Wieck Schumann.
