Can you give us the site?  Definitely sounds 20th Century, Neo-Romantic idiom.

I think it sounds like it was composed around 1900. It is probably the first movement of a piano concerto labeled:  Adagio-allegro.

I would put this about 1940.  Either Richard Addinsell for one of his film scores or one of the Socialist-Realist composers from the Stalinist period.

Somewhat more reminiscent of the latter rather than the former.  That's pretty much what I was thinking.  Kabalevsky?  (I only know the 3rd PC).

i received the reply from the owner who used it as background music .
the answer is:

Harl McDonald Concerto for 2 Pianos I. Molto moderato

Is there a non-commercial recording we can stick in the archives?  Sounds lovely.
