The first piano concert was published in 1801 and has assimilates the styles of Beethoven's predecessors Mozart and Haydn. Vogt closes with two encores: Brahms Waltz Op. 38, No. 15 and Chopin's Nocturne No. 20 in C-sharp minor, Op. posth. The latter being composed in 1830 but only published in 1870, 26 years after the composer’s death. It is dedicated to Chopin’s sister Ludwika.
