Among violinists and teachers, Oskar Rieding (1840–1918) is primarily known for his easily violin concertos suited for beginners. His works, written for music lessons, are easy to master, beautiful to listen to and sparkle with enchanting aesthetics.
The Rondo, which originally was the third of four easy performance pieces in a cycle for violin and piano (Op. 22), is one of Rieding‘s most popular and frequently performed pieces in violin lessons for beginners. Rieding was leader of the orchestra at the Budapest opera house and clearly draws on this operatic influence in this piece.
