This undisputed king of concertos is the sole work of its kind left by Beethoven, and it is a curious fact that not only this work, but the other three great ones by Mendelssohn, Brahms and Tchaikovsky are also the sole examples of their respective composers. The exceptional beauty and technical purity of Beethoven's violin part may partly be due to the fact that after it was written and played by a violinist by the name of Franz Clement, to whom it was dedicated, Beethoven made several alterations in the solo part to such effect that it is one of the most effectively polished virtuoso parts in the whole violin literature. The curious opening, four drum taps, make a very effective motto-like motif running throughout the first movement. Of the almost unearthly beauty of the second movement it is impossible to give in words an adequate impression, and an analysis would constitute an offence. The last movement follows without a break. It breathes happiness, as does indeed the whole concerto, which is a master-work without a single flaw.
