favorite concerto (NOT for a piano)

[zemos]

What's your favorite non-piano concerto?

My favorite concerto would have to be Sibelius's violin concerto in Dm.

I like:
Lutoslawski-Cello Concerto
Mendelssohn-Violin Concerto E minor
Bach-Harpsichord (keyboard...) Concertos (technically Not piano concertos...)
Brahms-Double Concerto for Violin and Cello
Beethoven-Triple Concerto (for piano, violin, and cello)
Glass-Violin Concerto
Cage-4'33''....just kidding...could be a non-piano concerto it you wanted it to be;D

khatchaturian violin concerto (esp. 2nd part)

[athykay]

The Haydn cello concerto - can't remember which one, but the more famous of the two.  Gives me goose bumps every time I hear it.

[sharon_f]

The Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky and Barber Violin Concertos
Haydn C major Cello Concerto, also Tchaikovsky's Variations on a Roccoco Theme
I also love the Strauss Horn Concertos

[Bob]

by Gliere, It's title something like "Concerto for Coloratura Voice and Orchestra"   It's a vocal concerto -- no words, just a vocalise.  Very haunting, heart-breaking melody, Russian flavor.  The kind of music you can't resist listen to once you think of it.... (goes to listen to Gliere concerto)....
