I have completed this work for quite some time and now its time to make it public.

1. Allegro

He wasn't all that bothered about orchestration, it might seem. I think Chopin paid more attention to that aspect, and that is saying something.

Well, it is quite common in English-styled concertos at that time, a bit light-weighted. However this concerto was performed numerous times in his lifetime and even a full set of parts are engraved by Schott.

A complete manuscript copy set of parts can be found online at BSB. (In re the IMSLP page, I'm not convinced HMB claims the score was published in the 1850s but perhaps may be giving prices for the piano and orchestra parts, e.g.)

Wow! I didn't found that parts when I was searching that concerto... I'll do the possible to upload them to IMSLP.

Thanks! IIRC you'll have to separate them out and upload the instruments (flutes, etc.) as separate files, but check with someone who actually knows, not me.

It's done! I uploaded the parts to IMLSP, only we have to waint util they pass copyright review

Thanks! They seem to have done (passed it, I mean). Cheers! (Now, time to add other works to the IMSLP wishlist :D )
