Music Minus One Violin: Mendelssohn Violin Concerto in E minor, op. 64 (Book & 2 CDs)

Listen to the soloist-then play the selections yourself. Perfect for performance, practice, auditions and for everyday listening pleasure!Felix Mendelssohn worked on this concerto for six years. It is truly one of the most beautiful and popular in concerto literature—eloquent, passionate, lofty, and brilliant. A romantic-era classic of epic proportions. This new digitally remastered version of one of MMO's most popular editions brings new sonic brilliance, plus a newly engraved, "urtext" score with orchestral reduction printed along the solo part; and a second compact disc featuring two alternate versions, one a slightly slower 'traditional' tempo version and also a further slowed practice version of the accompaniment to help you get up to speed!
