Insights gained here will help performers and teachers to understand later developments in concerto writing., Jeremy Norris traces the progress of the Russian piano concerto, which was at first inspired by a handful of dilettante concerto-style works and fantasias labelled "for fortepiano or harpsichord." Most early Russian piano concertos reflected stylistic features of Western European music, and several show evidence of plagiarism. Russian composers encountered problems of structural organization, a factor that prevented several, including Taneyev and Balakirev, from completing some of their works. Norris shows that even Tchaikovsky was not always able to solve problems of structure. Anton Rubinstein's five concertos offered substantial artistry; and the most successful works of the century--Tchaikovsky's Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor, Rimsky-Korsakov's Concerto in C-sharp minor, and Balakirev's in E-flat--drew their inspiration from Russian folk song and Orthodox chant. Although the Russian piano concerto had inauspicious beginnings, its development during the nineteenth century laid superb artistic foundations for the monumental concertos of the twentieth century.
