One of the most popular and beautiful Violin Concertos in the repertoire, the 'Violin Concerto No. 1' is Bruch's most famous work, and has been recorded frequently. The heart of the concerto is the slow second movement, which is greatly valued for its deeply-felt lyricism. The work as a whole combines melody with dazzling writing for the violin, especially in the finale, and the concerto ends with a fiery, gradually building conclusion which gets faster and louder until the final chords.
