Alas, everyone, but writing this article has inspired me to write a book on the subject, so I will be pretty much busy during 2008, so won't be able to appear on CZ that much.

Damn. Too bad you have to leave. Hey, I'm working on a book too, and that doesn't keep me away...well, I suppose it does keep me away from much actual content work on the wiki. Anyway, thanks very much for your contributions! --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 10:45, 22 November 2007 (CST) | |||
The listing of violin concertos omits the Beethoven one, maybe the greatest. Logically it belongs in the 19th century section (though the history section above doesn't always follow that), but I don't know which of the two categories given for 19th century concertos it belongs under.

I haven't read through the whole thing, but speaking as a "mere" fiddle player, this looks like another great article, Jeff! When such a well-developed article appears after a single edit, however, I've got to ask: where did this come from? Were you working on it on your own computer, only to upload it all at once?
