2 Violins and String Orchestra

2 violins and string orchestra

The double concerto repertoire for two violins and strings is rooted in the Baroque. Vivaldi wrote dozens of them, and Bach's Double Violin Concerto in D minor is one of the most performed works in the string orchestra canon. It's a combination that has stayed popular in school and youth orchestra programming ever since.

We're building this section with that context in mind: works that give two soloists a shared platform, whether for a school concert, a festival performance, or a more ambitious programme. If there's a concerto or arrangement you'd like to see here, please get in touch. Requests shape what we add next.
