which of these violin concertos do you think is the easiest?
Dmitri Shostakovich, Violin Concerto No. 1, Op. 99 Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Violin Concerto in D, Op. 35 Alban Berg Violin Concerto Sergei Prokofiev, Violin Concerto No. 1 in D, Op. 19 Igor Stravinsky, Violin Concerto in D Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Violin Concerto No. 3 in G, K216 Jean Sibelius, Violin Concerto in D minor, Op. 47 Joannes Brahms, Violin Concerto in D, Op. 77 Ludwig van Beethoven, Violin Concerto in D, Op. 61 Wieniawski Violin Concerto No. 2 in D minor, Op. 22 Dvorak Violin Concerto in A minor, Op. 53 Wieniawski Violin Concerto No. 1 in F # Minor, Op. 14 Mendelssohn Violin Concerto in B minor, Op. 64 Saint-Saëns Violin Concerto No. 3 in B minor, op. 61
Mozart and Mendelssohn concerts are the most commonly assigned to high school students. Neither one is a piece of cake. I can name a few that are definitely out: Tschaikovsky wrote his concerto for the famous violinist Leopold Auer, who was rejected on the grounds that it was impossible. But one of Auer students learned to play it, so he learned to play it. All in twelve-tone is difficult, so does Berg concerto. There is some dispute which is the hardest concerto ever written that Tschaikovsky or Sibelius. I tried to learn to play Beethoven concert but eventually gave up on it.
