Peter Ilyitch Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) originally dedicated his CONCERTO FOR VIOLIN in D, Op. 35, to Leopold Auer. The Hungarian violinist concluded that it was too difficult. The concerto finally premiered on December 4, 1881, Adolph Brodsky performing the solo part with the Vienna Philharmonic under the direction of Hans Richter. Influential 18th century music critic Eduard Hanslick's complaint about the length of the concerto gradually succumbed to its growing reputation as a challenging yet irresistibly melodic touchstone for aspiring violinists all over the world. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 4.2.1(opt.).0: Timp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Solo Violin in set. Reprint edition.
