Violin Concerto No. 3 (Saint-Saëns)
- Violin Concerto No. 3 (Saint-Saëns)
The Violin Concerto No. 3 in B minor, Op. 61, by Camille Saint-Saëns, is a Romantic piece for violin and orchestra. Saint-Saëns finished and dedicated the concerto in 1880 to fellow composer-virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate, who played the solo part at the premiere. The work is in three movements:
*"Allegro non troppo"
*"Andantino quasi allegretto"
*"Molto moderato e maestoso" The Third (and last) of Saint-Saëns' violin concertos imposes fewer technical demands on the soloist than its predecessors; rather, its focuses are melodic invention and expressive subtlety. This stress is most notable in the slow movement; and the chorale of the finale, which is reminiscent of the conclusion of the Fourth Piano Concerto. Possibly because of this, the Third Concerto has endured, along with the "Introduction et Rondo capriccioso", Op. 28, and the "Havanaise", Op. 83, as the major concertante work for violin by Saint-Saëns still heard regularly today.
