Piano Concerto No. 1 In D-flat Major, Op. 10, In Full Score

After his training as a concert pianist, Prokofiev played this single-movement concerto for his final examination and received the coveted Rubinstein prize. The concerto opens with a grandiose theme that unifies the entire work. Four contrasting sections are fashioned into a three-part sonata design, climaxing in a brilliant solo cadenza.
