- Rachmaninov – Piano Concerto No.2. This colossus of the piano repertoire topped the annual Classic FM Hall of Fame for the first time in 2001 and hasn’t strayed far since, reaching that No.1 spot an impressive eight times so far, since the chart began in 1996.
- Beethoven – Piano Concerto No.5 (‘Emperor’) We all know you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but in this case you absolutely can: Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No.5 absolutely lives up to its imperial nickname.
- Grieg – Piano Concerto in A minor. The great Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg only completed one piano concerto during his lifetime, and it has become one of the most recognised in the world (thanks, in part, to the iconic comedy sketch by Morecambe and Wise, and the late André Previn).
- Shostakovich – Piano Concerto No.2. Shostakovich himself downplayed this concerto, saying it had “no redeeming artistic merits”, but audiences have always begged to differ.

Germany, 1970 An absolute mastermind at the piano, the Chilean pianist performed pieces from almost every era throughout his career. This performance of "Moonlight Sonata" stands out from the crowd in particular. Wow.
Warsaw, 1980 Many of you will be familiar with the 1980 Chopin Competition 'Pogorelich Affair' when, despite his performances being extremely popular with the watching audience, the pianist was NOT admitted to the final round because of his 'unconventional interpretations'. Half the judging panel had given him exceptionally high scores, half had gi...
Wiener Musikverein, 1987 As one comment exclaims, "I'm not the first to make this point, but it bears being made twice. This is probably the best piano recital ever given." What more can one say?
With the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie conducted by Martin Panteleev. Concertgebouw Amsterdam, 2013 Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No 2 is arguably his most popular work, and Ukrainian pianist Anna Fedorova certainly does it justice.

- Beethoven: Piano Concerto No. 4 – and No. 5 too. Composers have been trying to beat Beethoven for 200 years. Few succeed. Choosing the best of his five piano concertos is an unenviable task – and so I suggest both his Fourth and Fifth concertos as equal crowning glories of the repertoire.
- Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No. 2. Come on, don’t be mean – this concerto is perfect. It’s almost impossible to fault one page, one phrase, one note in one of the greatest piano concertos.
- Mozart: Piano Concerto In C Minor, K491. Mozart’s 27 piano concertos comprise the largest body of piano concertos that are regularly heard in concert halls, although (scandalously) a relatively small handful are regularly performed.
- Brahms: Piano Concerto No. 1. This concerto took two different forms – symphony, then two-piano sonata – before settling down as a concerto. It was profoundly affected by the fate of Robert Schumann.
