Violin Concerto No. 1 (Szymanowski)

Violin Concerto No. 1 (Szymanowski)

Szymanowski’s Violin Concerto No. 1 op. 35 was written in 1916 while the composer was in Zarudzie, Ukraine. Paweł Kochański advised Szymanowski on the fine point of violin technique during the composition of the concerto, and he later wrote the cadenza. The work is dedicated to Kochański. The likely inspiration for the concerto was "Noc Majowa," a poem by the Polish poet Tadeusz Miciński. The Violin Concerto No. 1 was premiered 1 November 1922 in Warsaw with Józef Ozimiński as the soloist.

The Violin Concerto no. 1 op. 35 is considered one of the first modern violin concertos. It rejects traditional tonality and romantic esthetics.
