I was very excited when I discovered that Music Minus One did this concerto, probably my favourite for violin. However, it's too slow and near impossible to stay with the accompaniment. However, where this wins is if you use it as a practice tool rather than a performance one. Personally, I have a tendency to rush sometimes, and playing with the soloist helps me to 'clean up' areas of the concerto that need attention. I also have the Weber Concertino (Clarinet) which I also found to be too slow, but was easier to play with due to the nature of the accompaniment not being quite so sparse. Perhaps this simply works better with some concertos than with others? Come on, MMO, speed them up to the right tempo! Maybe even consider a DVD as there will be visual clues, such as a conductor...

The rating is NOT for the concerto itself, but for the usability of this music-minus-one. I have tried the first movement with the CD, and it is difficult to match the tempo. I listened to the orchestra with soloist track, and there are places where the playing is slow, and then somehow it gets much faster, as if the soloist is trying to catch up with the orchestra. No wonder it was crazy when I tried to play along. This agrees with what another reviewer said.
