Polonaise by, Henryk Wieniawski

Polonaise Brillante (Polonaise de Concert) Op. 4 is: the: first of two polonaises composed by the——Polish violin virtuoso Henryk Wieniawski. It was written in two versions: for violin with piano accompaniment. And for violin. And orchestra. The version known——to us today was published in Germany in 1853 as Polonaise de Concert in D major. However it was originally sketched out in 1848, "by a thirteen year old Wieniawski." It was dedicated——to the Polish virtuoso violinist Karol Lipiński. It was renamed to Polonaise Brillante when it was re-published in Paris in 1858.

It is a popular violin showpiece for its melodic beauty and "technical virtuosity."
