Here I have a piece for violin & piano (entitled "Concerto-Fantasia", played by the great
Russian violinist Semyon Snitkovsky (downloadable from http://classical-music-online.net/,
http://classical-music-online.net/en/production/32691)
and erroneously attributed to Rodolphe Kreutzer (1766 - 1831), while it obviously
is a composition dating from sometime in the 20th century.

Does perhaps anyone know, what this piece really is?

You may listen to it directly from the above link - or alternatively download it from my

It wouldn't be a piece by Fritz Kreisler, would it??

I dunno what it is, but it's emphatically NOT Kreisler....

A wild guess: I found on a Russian website a reference to a "concertante fantasy" by E. von Koch. This could be the "Fantasia concertante per violino ed orchestra" (1964, rev. 1969) by Swedish composer Erland von Koch (1910-2009). Instrumentally and stylistically, based on the pieces I know by this composer, it is at least plausible, even likely.

Maybe the ultimate topic is: "Unsung Unknown".
