Alexander Peskanov Piano Concerto No. 7, published by Classical Video Concepts, Inc. was inspired by the 50th Wedding Anniversary of composer's friends, Judith and Murray Siegel. The first movement has a vibrant spirit that reflects the dynamic life of these two people. The second movement is lyrical and tells about the passion of love and the strength that makes a great marriage. The third movement is based on a motif from an old Jewish song that the composer's grandfather, David used to sing during family gatherings. The movement has a strong influence of harmonic colors, and engaging rhythms found in klezmer and Hassidic music.

Lindeman, a musicologist, traces and defines the historical development of the concerto form as it passed from Mozart to succeeding generations. He then assesses Beethoven's contributions, and examines the classical model of the form in the early 19th century by overviewing several early romantic composers' works. Subsequent chapters analyze and assess the responses of five precursers of Schumann, whose work offers a synthesis of radical experiments and traditional tenets. He concludes by suggesting that concertos of Lizst offer a road into further developments of the genre in the second half of the century. Illustrated with bandw portraits of composers and excerpts from musical scores. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
