May 8, 200619 yr That would have to be a tie between two Concertos. Johann Sebastian Bach's Violin Concerto in A minor BWV 1041, and his Violin Concerto in E major BWV 1042. Although, not as orchestrated as largerly as the ones after Bach's time, these are a symbol of perfection. My most loved. :) Jeremy

But the one I played the most us the Double in D minor.
June 14, 200619 yr People.... You're forgetting one of the most amazing of all! Corigliano's Chaconne for Violin and Orchestra. That piece changed my life.... it's off the Red Violin soundtrack and I urge any violinists here to have a listen.
June 14, 200619 yr I like Paganini's Violin concerto No. 2 in Bm (La Campanella) I know like absolutely nobody likes Paganini here, so no hate mail please
June 15, 200619 yr Maybe I should another favorite Composer, But he'll still remain my favorite musician Is there a way you can change your username?

June 16, 200619 yr Witold Lutoslawski's Partita for Violin and Orchestra is great. And I thought he said that he didn't like atonal music? :) Stravinsky's is great as well. I've seen on wikipedia that Bruch wrote another two more violin concertos, though I've never heard or seen the score of them. Any help here? (trying to promote unheard works is my job - gonna buy a $1500 opera when I'm in college and have the money :thumbsup:)
June 23, 200619 yr Author Mendelssohns violin concerto! (can't play it though!) I can, it's beautiful :shifty:
August 27, 200619 yr Max Bruch's Gminor Violin Concerto! It's such a great work, especially the first movement.
August 28, 200619 yr It's Shostakovich. Yes his works are amazing but I only really like his symphonies.
