Notes

Originally uploaded to YouTube with the title "We Are NY Phil @ Home: Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G for One Musician" and the following description:

Double threat! Watch as New York Philharmonic English Horn Ryan Roberts performs Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major as both soloists: piano and English Horn.

In Ryan's words:
"Finally!! The English Hornist gets to choose the tempo. When Ravel was praised for the beauty of this melody, he responded, 'That flowing phrase! How I worked over it bar by bar! It nearly killed me!' I think oboists can relate to this sentiment."
