Chopin's first concerto - like Beethoven, actually the second that he wrote - has outer movements designed to show off the young composer's sparkling pianism framing a beautiful slow movement which he described as ‘a reverie in fine spring weather, but lit by the moon'. Cesar Franck's symphony achieves great unity as the themes outlined in its imposing introduction reappear in the three movements, transformed and developed in all sorts of inventive ways, leading to a triumphant conclusion.
