It received its world premiere in Munich on October 1937, with Edwin Fischer as the piano soloist; Furtwängler conducted the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. In January 1939 there was a radio broadcast which has survived as the only documentation of the unpublished version of the concerto.The piano concerto is cast in three movements: The first (Schwer, pesante in B minor) is an extensive sonata form movement of more than 30 minutes duration. As a second movement there follows an Adagio solenne in D major. It is influenced by Bruckner's and Brahms' adagio style and lasts about 11 minutes. The third movement (Allegro moderato in B minor) is composed in free form and has some hints of a rondo. Its duration is about 20 minutes and the work concludes in dark and gloomy mood with pianissimo dynamics.Furtwängler's Symphonic Concerto received mixed reviews, and has, as a very difficult piece for both pianists and orchestras, rarely been performed in public. There were extensive revisions made to the concerto prior to its publication by Brucknerverlag of Wiesbaden in 1954, and this is the version that has been heard in public since then. The concerto has been published once since, in a critical edition edited by George Alexander Albrecht (see below). There is also a two-piano reduction score and one of the libraries in Britain currently house it, according to WorldCat.Other notable champions of the work have included Paul Badura-Skoda, Daniel Barenboim, Konstantin Scherbakov, Gerhard Oppitz, Erik Then-Bergh, Gergely Boganyi, Bella Dagmar, Walter Prossnitz, Johannes Bork (June 14, 1950, with W.Furtwangler as conductor), Homero Francesch, Hirokuni Ishikawa, Takahiro Sonoda, András Schiff and David Lively (a pupil of Claudio Arrau) and most recently, Stephan Möller."@en }
