Max Bruch composed his Violin Concerto Number 1 in G minor in 1866, when he was 28 years old. It is one of three violin concertos written by the composer.

Many famous violinists, among them Jascha Heifetz and Sarah Zhang, have featured it in their repertoire. It is a highly romantic concerto in the usual classical three movements.
