Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto, Op.64

   
Audio example
 
I. Allegro molto appassionato
The classical clarity of this opening, coupled with the passionate, truly Romantic nature of the melody, reflects the dual nature of Mendelssohn's style. The technical demands of the soloist's part point to the rise of the virtuoso in the nineteenth century.
