The Violin Concerto by the American composer John Adams was written in 1993. Its premiere was in 1994 by Jorja Fleezanis with the Minnesota Orchestra. Fleezanis also collaborated with Adams in writing the violin solo. The piece was co-commissioned by the New York City Ballet, leading to a strong sense of rhythm throughout the entire work. For it, Adams received the University of Louisville Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition. The solo violin is almost unceasing as the violin weaves through the orchestra, which serves primarily as a backdrop for the violin. The Violin Concerto has been described as "the most original approach to the genre since the Alban Berg Concerto".〔Christopher Latham, review of recording by Chloë Hanslip, Limelight, January 2007, p. 47〕 ==Structure== The work is in three movements: # Quarter-note = 78 # Chaconne: ''Body through which the dream flows'' # Toccare. The work is dedicated to David Huntley of Boosey & Hawkes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Violin Concerto (Adams)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
