Dmitri Borisovich Kabalevsky Piano Concerto No. 3 in D major, Op. 50 I. Allegro molto II. Andante con moto III. Presto Soviet Union State Radio and Television Orchestra Emil Gilels / Piano Dmitri Kabalevsky / Conductor
I can’t believe I’m 73 years old and hearing this piano concerto for the first time. I played his Sonatina in g minor on my college junior recital, but that’s that’s as far as I got with my exploration of the music of Kabalevsky. What a happy and cheerful delightful piano concerto this is.
My daughter played this in her freshman year in high school. I had only ever heard her part for weeks as she memorized it. When i finally heard the piece played in complete with the two pianos it just brought tears to my eyes. Such a special masterpiece
Kabalevsky was born in Saint Petersburg. His father was a mathematician and encouraged him to study mathematics; however, in early life Dmitry maintained a fascination with the arts, and became an accomplished young pianist, including a three-year stint as a pianist in silent theatres. He also dabbled in poetry and painting. He graduated from the Academic Music College, Moscow in 1925, and against his father's wishes entered the Moscow Conservatory, studying for the next five years there composition under Nikolai Myaskovsky and piano with Alexander Goldenweiser. In 1925 he joined PROKULL (Production Collective of Student Composers), a student group affiliated with Moscow Conservatory aimed at bridging the gap between the modernism of the ACM and the utilitarian "agitprop" music of the RAPM. He started to teach in the Moscow Conservatory in 1932, becoming a professor in 1939.

ЭТО ВЕЛИКАЯ СОВЕТСКАЯ КЛАССИКА. GREAT SOVIET CLASSICAL MUSIC. IT,S MUSIC BASED ON MELOS OF SONGS OF KABALEVSKIY ABOUT OF LOVE TO RUSSIA AND SOVIET YOUNG PEOPLE.
I used to listen to this back in the '60s. My father actually found an LP of it. Haven't heard it in decades. Kabalevsky is soooo underrated! His symphonic pooem "Spring" is to die for!
Оставим крайности. Кабалевского, конечно же, трудно назвать гением, но композитор по-своему интересный, высокопрофессиональный и главное его музыка несет радость бытия. А сегодня восхваляют преимущественно приверженцев авангарда
3-й концерт, как и остальные произведения Кабалевского, написан для детей и о советском детстве. Конечно, педагогов не принято называть "гениальными" (даже Руссо). Но уж точно, что звание выдающегося педагога он заслужил. С прискорбием: его система музыкального воспитания сейчас невостребована, как и идеи Сухомлинского, Ильина, Амонашвили, Шаталова и др.
like this recording, kabalevsky was the conductor so he should have find it was a good version Gilels played or he would have completly changed it!! Now i finally know how Dmitri really wanted this music.
@Galaxy Eyes - This is not a song. It does not have lyrics for someone to sing this is a piano Concerto. I wish everyone would stop coming piano pieces songs songs have the lyrics to be some
I'm enjoying the memory of playing this concerto--not at this tempo!--with my teacher in 1967, junior year of high school. Perhaps the introduction to a lifelong interest in 20th century piano music.
And for be sure, than Kabalevsky was seriouse composer, enought to listen his 1 st and second piano consert, cello's and violin consert, 2 and 4 symfonies, in Toscanini conducting.
Same, lol I played the whole thing and I want to enjoy it while listening. But... I can't help but start getting neurotic from remembering fingering and the awkward cadenza.
To Daniel B: I started piano lessons at 13, after about 4 years of flute lessons and within 2 years I started learning this concerto. How my HS orchestra director found out I was learning this work I will never know but he asked me to play it with his community orchestra. Between my 3rd & 4th year of HS I played only the 1st movement with his orchestra (?). However it was little surprise to me that most of the musicians in the audience told me I played better than the orchestra!!
Very enjoyable. But, compared to piano works by contemporaries Prokofiev and Shostakovich, easy to see why Kabalevsky had less trouble with Soviet authorities on issues of 'realism' versus 'formalism.'
If somebody don't know, that concert - the perfect musical and phylosofic variation on very famous soviet song, the prime theeme of concert - that's the melody of song, maybe with this factor connecting especial sentimentality of concert. But we need to ask, why Kabalevsky, in that time not so young, experiensly enought, auther of two very seriouse and modern concert for piano, come to do some very "easy" - variations of "pioneer" song? Why, what's idea of composer - phylosofic, not musical? What he whant to said for public? We must remember, than time of concert creating that very hot time of "cold war", of two nuclear empires conflict, of horrible ideologic and propagand's battle, of military politic ang pathos, and maybe composer whant said for us, than for this crasy and danger word can help only childs clearity and naivity, that we feeling and listening in this easy pioneer song... childs naivity, that must over to be condition heart of "big and seriouse man's"... we listeting the song theeme of concert than an voice of clearity, love for life and peace... exectly, not change something from that times...
The first movement already sounds like the 3rd movement of the typical piano concerto. I love this work but the structure of it makes little sense to me without it having a proper symphonic introduction rather than having the thematic material being hurled at the listener in one swing right at the start. Take Beethoven's 3rd for example, a majestic orchestral intro to this concerto just like Beethoven would have done, would have been possible given the high quality of the themes that Kabalevsky came up with.
we have to be able de to a bit more than one year old and we can be a great man we can make the game more interesting to play with more than a lot more levels but we have a great game yue a lot more to say about it and we have a lot to say about it more we can say more than we have been able to do so i can see that the game has more to say than we can say we are more than a more objective than a lot of the same thing as we have to be able we are able to have the same as we have been able we have been more able we have been a lot of the same game as we are we can say

Well often if a recording was done on the old 78's rpms, then artists would often rush the tempos to fit on one side of a record. If this was on a 33 1/3 recording, and Kabalevsky himself is the conductor in this performance, then I would say that the composer is often not the best interpreter of his own works! Listen to Rachmaninoff playing his 5 piano concertos. They are often very sloppy with the technique, and he frequently does not follow his own dynamic and tempo markings! And he was considered a great pianist!
It's conducted by the author and played by one of the 20th century's greatest pianists. I'd say you might want to modify whatever preconceived notions of this music you hold to.
@maestro7PL - Kabalevsky, the composer, is conducting the orchestra. This is the exact tempo he intended for this piano concerto to be played. Get used to it.
для тебя кабалевский не проблема потому, что ты клинический идиот (и фотография у тебя соответствующая), уроки музыки кабалевского для тебя высокоинтеллектуальны..., как и его " музыка".
Сначало дорасти до него. Были у него свои минусы (как выступление против "формализма" ) но композитор не из плохих. У многих виднейших композиторов есть произведения по хуже этого. И этот концерт один из моих любимых концертов, хотя сам виолончелист.
