Contemporary violin concertos

Works Daniel Auner has performed regularly and in part developed together with their composers.

Every violinist learns the great violin concertos of Johannes Brahms, Jean Sibelius, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Ludwig van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadé Mozart — and some musicians then also turn to contemporary works. Daniel Auner has performed the following concertos regularly and in part developed them together with their composers.

birdcalls at daybreak
olive trees in fragrant heat
the wild colours of dusk
at night the abyss of the universe
through the curtain of stars
… I almost forgot the palms”
