Concerto pour violon et orchestre en mi mineur op. 64

The Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64, is a violin concerto by Felix Mendelssohn, composed in 1844 and premiered in 1845. Rooted in early Romantic lyricism, it features a flowing, cantabile solo violin line closely integrated with the orchestra through largely uninterrupted movements and demonstrates Mendelssohn's refinement of classical forms, representing a major late work in his output and an influential contribution to the 19th-century concerto repertoire.
