Ah yes, statistics. One possible reason why there are only violin concertos in the top 10 of pieces: let's say all concert halls do twice as many piano concertos than violin concertos. But if there are four times as many great piano concertos than violin concertos, individual piano concertos get played less than individual violin concertos (like 10 piano concertos get played three times each, but 3 violin concertos get played six times each). Four Seasons and Messiah get played a lot to cover the year's expenses, I guess ...

Vivaldi though, he breathed and lived melody, many Baroque masters did, it was their bread and butter. And here is why centuries later they are still among the most played composers and I reckon they still will be centuries later, whether many classical snobs like it or not.

I feel like the reason it's violin concertos that are up there is that violin is that perfect sweet spot of being a very very VERY popular instrument that has a *huge tradition of standard repertoire*. Most professional violinists I know have all "gone through the ranks" and played the same set of the popular concertos just to "have them", versus piano (which is technically more played as an instrument?) I feel emphasizes less of that tradition. There are definitely popular concertos, but you're more likely picking from a wider range as you choose your path/style as a pianist.

Love the Messiah! Spent 5 years every Christmas singing it in my choir with my siblings. Fun memories listening to it in the car and all of us singing along in our respective parts (brothers tenor and bass) and me and my sister (alto and sop). The great worthy is the lamb and the amen at the end of the piece is just amazing!

I went to a concert with a friend which was Bruch and Beethoven (Bruch violin concerto 1 and Beethoven symphony 3) and we both agree with eddy’s comment on Beethoven 3 not being the best to listen to (and it being very very controversial), it’s an amazing piece however does make you kinda fall asleep a bit, especially the 2nd mvt Ofc the Bruch was also amazing, check out this great violinist Zia Shin

I love this kind of videos. Because you tell things I didnt know even if I love classical music. Especially of course ”the romantic period” which I think are pretty easy for a musically non educated person like me. But Thanks to another youtuber I come to appreciate Debussys ”Sunken cathedral” youtube can be fantastic open new worlds.

A lot of the classical music performed, especially at big venues, is very well known. My choir is pretty much the only one in Vienna who performs the really obscure stuff that the majority of people have never even heard of. Probably why we don't get much of an audience. The church at our concert next week is gonna feel real empty with more than four 5ths (our prediction) of it empty lol

Once again thank you for introducing us(or just me) to new pieces, but I wonder what's the third violin concerto in the top 10 list apart from Mendelssohn and Tchaikovasky? But hey, if Eddy is looking for something to practice, I think no one would say no for an encore at the 4M Mendy drop right? How about some Paganini?

i’m at a performing arts school. they decided that the first performance they had in two years would be of shostakovich’s fifth symphony, which was challenging but not unbearable. they decided that the next one would be mahler’s fifth symphony, which is VASTLY different from shos's

My first symphony concert playing in a professional symphony orchestra we played Tchaikovsky 5. I was 15 and had never heard it before. After the 1st rehearsal I went out and spent a big chunk of my orchestra payment to buy a recording of it. Many prefer Tchaikovsky 6 but 5 has beautiful melodies but with this underlying tone of sadness and dispair which I think gives it more depth than 6. Tchaikovsky 5 is my absolute favourite symphony

I have been looking through concert plans for months trying to find the perfect concert for my non-classically interested friend, and also been to a number of concerts myself - and I have never heard or seen any of those top ten pieces except for Mendelssohn's and Tchaikovsky's violin concertos. Seriously, we don't seem to like Brahms at all in Germany, I haven't seen a single concert where they play a Brahms symphony yet. And Eroica? 6, 7, 9 and sometimes 5, but I've never seen the Eroica played anywhere (to be fair, I kept out of the whole Beethoven 2020 thing because there are composers I much prefer). Of course I can only talk of my little frame of reference, but literally 8 out of ten were a huge surprise to me.

Now I'm confused (and embarrassed lol)... I live in a very small ''city'' in Finland and maybe a bit over a month ago we had this amazing violinist performing at the local cultural centre. Me going to the concert with my family, without knowing much about the solo violinist, and now finding out that he, Augustin Handelich, is like super famous?! In a way i feel a bit embarrassed for not knowing him... still so grateful for him to perform in here and giving us an amazing concert!!!
