Barber's "Concerto for Violin & Orchestra" - LIVE!

Here is the official premiere performance of Samuel Barber's Violin Concerto with violinist Albert Spalding and the Philadelphia Orchestra under the direction of Eugene Ormandy. From the Academy of Music in Philadelphia on February 7, 1941. I. Allegro II. Andante 10:19 III. Presto in moto perpetuo 18:23 Barber provided these program notes for this premiere performance: "The first movement—allegro molto moderato—begins with a lyrical first subject announced at once by the solo violin, without any orchestral introduction. This movement as a whole has perhaps more the character of a sonata than concerto form. The second movement—andante sostenuto—is introduced by an extended oboe solo. The violin enters with a contrasting and rhapsodic theme, after which it repeats the oboe melody of the beginning. The last movement, a perpetuum mobile, exploits the more brilliant and virtuosic character of the violin."
