Kabalevski, Violin Concerto in C Op. 48 (Peters)
Much of Dmitri Kabalevski's music was composed expressly for children to play or to appeal to children. This cheerful and energetic violin concerto can be seen to meet both requirements. It was written in 1948 and was the first of three instrumental compositions that Kabalevski dedicated to the Soviet youth. It was first performed in the autumn in 1948 by Igor Bezrodny who was 18 at the time. Kabalevsky intended this to be an advanced study piece but one with more elegance than the usual student concertos. Following its premier by David Oistrakh, it has been performed by virtuosi along with the violin students for which it was intended.
