Piano Concerto in C Major, Op. 7

Composer: KUHLAU, Friedrich
  • Kuhlau’s Piano Concerto in C Major was written in 1810 and consists of three movements in a traditional fast-slow-fast structure:
    1. Allegro
    2. Adagio
    3. Rondo. Allegro
  • Kuhlau dedicated his piano concerto to Danish composer Christoph Ernst Friedrich Weyse (1774-1842).1
  • Beethoven was a major source of inspiration for much of Kuhlau’s music, so it’s not surprising that Kuhlau’s work was written in the same key as Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1, Op. 15.
