Mendelssohn's piano and violin concerto in D
on: April 02, 2006, 10:42:03 PM
Hi all!

I was listening to this piece and became very fond of it. I'm studying mozart's K331 sonata (complete), the prelude and fugue in DM from Bach's WTC and a bunch of czerny and cramer's studies.
The question is: Has anyone here played the concerto before? If so, do you think I may be able to play it?

Thanks alot  :)

Well, it is written originally for piano, violin and string orchestra. More information about its composition here

The attachement is a recording of the first movement. It is a free CD of  live recording, so I guess there is no problem...
