DESCRIPTION:
Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826)
Piano Concerto 2 in E Flat Major Op. 32
I. Allegro maestoso
II. Adagio
III. Rondo: Presto

The recording of this piece by Demidenko for Hyperion Records is much better, but Hyperion would not give permission to upload it. Demidenko plays the last movement at a quicker tempo and with plenty of flair, which fits Weber's music perfectly.
