Violin Concerto No. 1 (Piston)

Walter Piston's Concerto No. 1 for Violin and Orchestra was written in 1939 and dedicated to violinist Ruth Posselt.[1] Posselt, backed by the National Orchestral Association under Léon Barzin, gave the first performance at Carnegie Hall on 18 March 1940.[2]

Amongst the audience was composer Benjamin Britten, who is quoted as telling Aaron Copland, "there was no composer in England of Piston’s age who could turn out anything so expert.”[1]

Structure

The work is in three movements:

1) Allegro energico 2) Andantino molto tranquillo 3) Allegro con spirito

A typical performance will last around 25 minutes.
