I agree with you, wkleung, that teachers nowadays should strongly recommend (if not require) that their students learn the D-Minor version. I always take a few minutes to explain to my students the history of the concerto and its various misattributions, and then I leave the decision to them. They usually prefer the D-Minor, since they know an informed audience will consider them ignorant if they perform the C-Minor. Unfortunately, we have many teachers (even some very capable ones!) here in the US who grew up with the C-Minor version and are either unwilling or unable to learn a new version. I have to admit that I lose a little respect for those teachers. I can't imagine a professor of literature requiring that his class read a misattributed and poorly edited version of a novel. Yet that's the sort of thing that is commonplace in schools of music, where orchestral experience too often trumps academic accomplishment in the hiring process.

Cheers,
Drew
