Beethoven Violin Concerto

December 23rd, 1806 should have been one of those dates etched
into musical history; it was the premier of a new violin concerto
by Beethoven, performed by one of the great soloists of the day.
But the performance was a relative failure, and the concerto
languished in obscurity for decades. Why did it fail? How did it
get re-discovered, and how did it slowly become one of the most
beloved pieces ever written? We'll explore all that today as well
as every nook and cranny of this remarkable concerto!
