Description:
This concerto was composed in 1775 in Salzburg. Mozart was a fine violinist who studied violin with his father, Leopold Mozart. He composed this concerto for himself, but upon completion of the work, Mozart concluded that it was above the level of his mastery of the instrument. Consequently, the first performance was given by Antonio Brunetti, Concertmaster of the Salzburg Court Orchestra. This publication is a unique performance edition with Cadenzas by Joseph Joachim and practical fingerings and bowings by Jascha Heifetz acclaimed student, Endre Granat.
