The Violin Concerto, written in 1928, is one of Egk's most significant instrumental works. It is indicative of the contemporary climate of innovation as reflected in the development of new genres for chamber orchestra, ensembles and soloists, as for example in Hindemith's chamber music pieces, Weill's Concerto for Violin and Woodwind, Berg's Chamber Concerto, and the Concerto and Capriccio by Stravinsky. The chamber orchestra with 16 players was considered a type of instrumentation appropriately contemporary for variety of uses and was frequently referred to in contemporary literature and discussions on Neo-classicism, Neue Sachlichkeit, functional music, music for radio, etc.
