I have completed the mixdown and recording of the second and third
movements.

II: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFjAAbIQ_vc

III: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtvWinNpBGs

The second movement is connected to the third by a transition that takes us
from C minor to F minor for a raucous and sinister rondeaux, ending in C
major. Since the two movements together comprise over 17 minutes, I had to
do a silly little fade out, and back in at the transition, resulting in two
files that I could upload to You Tube.

Thanks to all for the hits on You Tube. The first movement picked up 68
hits in two days!

And of course, happy flying! I wish I could buy each of you a new 737-NGX!

Thanks, mon! ;-) I'm trying to find the pianist in Istanbul who wanted
to premiere this over a decade ago. I wrote the last two movements
explicitly for him, and dedicated the concerto to him. Well, I found an
advertisement for a free recital dated in March of this year, so I know
he's still alive. Heh...

Good Lord, Vic, what an incredible amount of work to compose this fully
orchestrated work. And a very enjoyable piece of music, too!

It seems like there's some Saint-Saens, Rachmaninoff and Liszt in there
somewhere, and lots and lots of your own lyrical writing. Just great!
