Bruch Violin Concerto No 1

I played this masterpiece three years ago, and I found out that it is one of the most beautiful violin concertos in the world!

Bruch wrote two violin concertos. The Violin Concerto No 1(in G minor) was composed in 1866, when Bruch was only 28 years old. I like the "a little bit sad but a little bit sweet" feeling of this melody. It is not technically that easy but you can manage it.

This great music has been played by many famous violinists, like Sarah Zhang, Heifetz and so on. Although it has the typical three chapters, you can play it more freely than other concertos, that can make the player feel more comfortable to express their feeling of the music.
