My favorite composer in the world is Mozart, but being as I haven`t been playing violin for very long, I`ll have to stick with stuff like Bach for now. What are some of his not so hard violin concertos? Did he arrange his keyboard concertos to be played as violin concertos too? If so, that would be killer, because I lover his keyboard concertos and already started transcribing a few. It would be easier though, if I could just order the violin music. Thanks!

Hi, I`m Brittany and i`ve been playing violin for about three years. and honestly, not bragging, I`m pretty good at it. I absolutely love Baroque music and enjoy playing Mozart, Vivaldi, and Bach. One particular Bach concerto that I played in middle school (7th grade) was called
Concerto in d minor for two violins. (also named the "Bach Double") It may seem a little difficult at first, but it really helped me alot because the two violin parts go so well with each other. It taught me how important it is to listen to each other!! (in a string orchestra) This song is AWESOME!!!! Another one of my all time favorite concertos is by vivaldi called Concerto in d minor for two violins and cello! but seriously, CHECK THESE OUT!

Best of luck to you!!

There is quite I gap between the difficulty of the Mozart concertos and the Bach double, or Bach air on the G string. What level exactly are you looking for?
