The premier was chaotic, with Clement at one point interrupting the program to play one of his own compositions while holding the violin upside-down! Other violinists attempted the work with little success, and the concerto languished for several decades. It was the sensational 1844 performance by the 13-year-old Joseph Joachim, with Felix Mendelssohn conducting, which firmly established Beethoven&#8217;s Violin Concerto as one of the monuments in the repertoire.<br>Itzhak Perlman and Daniel Barenboim collaborated in this extraordinary 1992 performance.
