In May 1821, Weber left Dresden for Berlin to conduct the first performance of his newly-completed opera Der Freischulz. The production was due to take place on June 18; on the morning of that day he put the finishing touches to his Concertstuck for piano and orchestra and played it over to his wife, Caroline, and his pupil, Julius Benedict. A week later, the opera having been received with great enthusiasm, Weber gave a farewell concert in which he appeared as soloist in the Concertstuck. (He was one of the most brilliant pianists of his time and had already two piano concertos to his credit.) The work is in four linked sections: Larghetto affeltuoso, Allegro passionato. Tempo di marcia, and Rondo giojoso. Deryck Cooke
