The g-minor Violin Concerto, op. 26, by Max Bruch (1838–1920), is one of the standard works of the violin repertoire.
Max Bruch was a German composer of the Romantic period. Stylistically, his works outline a counter-aesthetic to the New German School. His violin concerti are particularly significant, but he also wrote numerous choral works, cantatas, oratorios, songs, stage works and orchestral pieces.
