Brahms's Sonata for Violin and Piano no 3 in D minor, Op. 108, was written between 1886 and 1888, during the Romantic Era. It was the last in a triptych of violin sonatas, and was first performed in Budapest in 1888.
Dedicated to a friend and colleague of Brahms, Hans von Bulow, this sonata has four movements, which was a departure from Brahms's preceding sonatas, each of which had three movements. The movements were:
1. Allegro
2. Adagio
3. Un poco presto e con sentimento
4. Presto Agitato
Bach- Concerto in E major Mendelssohn- Violin concerto in E minor mvt 1 or 3 Tchaikovsky- Violin concerto in D major mvt 1 or 3 Brahms- Violin Concerto in D major Beethoven- Violin concerto in D major Wieniawski- Scherzo-tarentella Beethoven- Romance in F or G major Much more than these
Brahms' Intermezzo, Op. 118 No. 1 in A minor, is often referred to with the Roman numeral designation "Op. CXVIII, No. I." In the context of its key, A minor, it would be represented as "i" in Roman numerals for the tonic. The full designation would be "Brahms, Intermezzo Op. CXVIII, No. I in i."
In no particular order, the top ten violin concertos are: * Violin Concerto in D Minor- Sibelius * Violin Concerto in D Major- Tchaikovsky * Violin Concerto in E Minor- Mendelssohn * Violin Concerto in D Major- Beethoven * Violin Concerto in A Minor- Glazunov * Violin Concerto in G Minor- Bruch * Violin Concerto in D Major- Brahms * Violin Concerto in G Minor- Prokofiev * Violin Concerto in A Minor- Bach * Violin Concerto in B Minor- Elgar This is definitely an "arguable" top 10 list, but they're all pretty famous concertos. Those are just the ones that came off the top of my head, so I'm sure I missed some other really good ones, but those are the only ones I can think of for now. The list was narrowed down a lot since it was just violin concertos, but these are definitely some of the best. Other notes: * Joshua Bell's CD of the Mendelssohn and the Bruch are fantastic. * Nigel Kennedy's perfomance of the Bach is great. * Schlomo Mintz plays excellent versions of the Mendelssohn and the Sibelius on Youtube. * Jascha Heifetz's CD compiled of the Sibelius, Tchaikovsky and Glazunov is very good. He was a great violinist, but since he played so long ago, the recordings are not always that great.

Yes.
Moonlight Sonata is minor. Songs that are minor sound sad or upsetting, whereas major songs sound alive and happy.

The Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven is composed in the key of C-sharp minor.
Bach's A minor violin concerto is known for its intricate melodies, technical challenges, and emotional depth. It is significant in the history of music as one of the first solo violin concertos ever written. Bach's innovative use of the solo violin as a prominent voice within the concerto form influenced later composers and helped establish the concerto as a popular genre in classical music.
