Concerto per violino e orchestra in re maggiore, op. 61

Concerto per violino e orchestra in re maggiore, Op. 61 is a violin concerto by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1806. The work exemplifies Beethoven's middle-period orchestral writing, expanding the concerto form with long-span structures, extended orchestral passages and a slow, song-like movement that integrates soloist and orchestra in a symphonic manner.
