Konzert für Violine und Orchester D-dur op. 61

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Wolfgang Schneiderhan & Berliner Philharmoniker & Wilhelm Furtwängler

The Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 61 is a concerto for violin and orchestra by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1806. Rooted in Classical concerto conventions, the work features expansive lyrical themes, a broad orchestral palette and technically demanding solo writing that anticipates Romantic expressiveness, and it occupies a central place in Beethoven's middle-period output as an example of his expansion of concerto form and orchestral integration.
First released: 1963
