Piano accompaniment backing tracks
Tchaikovsky wrote his violin concerto in 1878, and it has become one of the best-loved concertos in the entire repertoire. The first movement is typically expansive for Tchaikovsky, lasting over fifteen minutes in performance - after an exciting orchestral introduction the violin commences one of the composer's most Romantic melodies. The lyrical second movement Canzonetta then leads straight into one of the most exciting of all Russian concerto movements.
