“What would be the ideal way to compose a concerto? It occurred to me today that it would certainly be interesting for a pianist to be presented with a concerto that had its origin in a technically challenging sonata and subsequently been transformed into a concerto. The solo part would be bound to be interesting pianistically, while the sonata itself would benefit by the reinforcement and embellishment of a skillfully added orchestral texture. Brilliant idea! … I do have a nice Sonata in A minor, also a perfectly good C minor Sonata, and suppose I were to put together a crisp little concerto from that? …”
