I need to find a solo violin piece with no piano accompaniment for a school contest that is coming up soon.

I've been playing the violin for 5 and a half years now. I've played Czardas written by Monti, the Bach Double... well... by Bach, Antonio Vivaldi's four seasons, and his concerto in A minor.

Preferred Genre: classical

Would anyone know some good violin solo pieces without accompaniment?
I would appreiate any information.

I play Bach Air in D, Masseenet Meditation in D, F Schubert Traumerei in F, Chopin Nocturne opt.9 no 2 in Eb. I also play Italian songs for fun.

aren't the Paganini caprices and Bach partitas unaccompanied?

Yes. I believe so, but I am not at the level to practice 24 of them.
At first, I was also thinking of them in an attempt to answer, then I dropped it.
