For violin and piano. Brahms dedicated his only violin concerto to violinist Joseph Joachim, who premiered the work in 1879. A critic at the premiere noted that despite Joachim's technical and artisitc prowess, he had to "visibly exert himself to negotiate the technical difficulties" of the solo part. With supplementary violin part marked by Frank Peter Zimmermann. This Urtext edition of this piece follows the musical text of the new Brahms Complete Edition. The appendix contains an alternative version of Joseph Joachim's cadenza that to date has not been published in a practical edition.
