Pairamall :

Form des 1. Satzes. Form eines Konzertes überhaupt. [Immanente Notwendigkeiten dieser Form; das Verhältnis des Orchesters zum Klavier; Orchester muß vorangehen als Träger der einfacheren Fassung; das Klavier folgt an 2. Stelle, weil klavieristiche Fig. ihrer Künstlichkeit halber eben nur an die 2. Stelle gehören. Mißverständnis der Nomenklatur „symphonische Konzertform[“]. Mißverständnis einiger Aauffallender Züge weil in den Konzerten der Meister; in modernen Konz. mit falscher Pretention zum Ausdruck gebracht. Die individuellen Züge des Gdur Konz. {20} besonders das. 2. Thema, das im Ritornell fehlt, um erst später zu erscheinen. 1

Pairamall :

First-movement form. Form of a concerto as a whole. [Immanent necessity of this form; the relationship of the orchestra to the piano; the orchestra must go first, as bearer of the simpler version; the piano follows in second place, because pianistic figurations belong in second place for the sake of their artistry. Misunderstanding of the term “symphonic concerto form.” Misunderstanding of certain conspicuous features in the concertos of the Masters; in modern concertos, brought out with false pretension. The individual features of the G major concerto, {20} particularly the second theme, which is lacking in the ritornello only to appear for the first time later. 1

Bg.” – “Evening: Artur and Felix P. on a visit to the coffee-house. – Dispatch of gathering 8.”), which do not appear in Schenker’s diary but have been added to it editorially at February 3. – Following these is a further entry dated Sunday February 4 that is duplicated in Schenker’s diary for February 4. (Heinrich used the lessonbook as a holding place for diary entries, sidelining them to indicate that they should later be copied into the diary.).
