Perhaps OT, but when looking at this, I realized that to me "Concerto
for piano" implies a concerto for piano solo. But I always interpret
"Piano Concerto" as a concerto for piano & orchestra. Maybe it's just
me?
Off the top of my head, I cannot think of any concertos for
only-one-single-instrument-without-orchestral-accompaniment, so I don't
understand "Concerto for Piano" as you do. (Ignorance is bliss ;)
I think I'd like to see the complete instrumentation ("Concerto for
piano and orchestra) if that (IMO) more formal expression is used.
I prefer the more concise formulation. Many work titles, I believe, do
have "Concerto for X and Orchestra", but I prefer to avoid that for
track titles.
(Here's an example where a label is using the short formulation for the
ReleaseTitle, and long titles elsewhere:
