Violin Concerto 2 in D Minor, 1st Movement by Wieniawski
Wieniawski was a Polish violinist and composer. His second concerto is considered one of the finest works he ever composed, and is a turbulent piece, with both lyrical melodic lines (as in when the solo violinist enters for the first time) and technically challenging passages with difficult shifts, string crossings, and up-bow spiccatos. This piece was dedicated to Pablo de Sarasate.
