Violin Concerto

Album by Felix Mendelssohn & Daniel Hope & Chamber Orchestra of Europe & Thomas Hengelbrock

Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64 is a violin concerto by the German composer Felix Mendelssohn, completed in 1844. It combines lyrical Romantic melodies with Classical structural clarity, features technically demanding yet song-like solo writing integrated with transparent orchestral textures, and occupies an important place in Mendelssohn's output and the core concert repertoire for violinists.
