Just a little nitpick. Saint-Saëns has a ë like this. Great quiz otherwise! Maybe as an extra hint put time period they were in?

Haydn and Beethoven also had concertos in C Major so that's why you might want hints =)

For sure Haydn, but Beethoven has just the one concerto in D. Plus if he has another, not sure it would count as among the best if put against the D major Op. 61. My two cents. Wouldn't be a Beethoven nerd if I didn't haha

Love all these! I know it's your "best" violin concerti, but I think Barber might deserve a spot haha. If only for the first two movements lol. Or even Korngold!

Reiding? That's not a major concerto. If you include Reiding, you may as well include Seitz.
