A violin concerto is a concerto for solo violin (occasionally, two or more violins) and instrumental ensemble (customarily orchestra). Such works have been written since the Baroque period, when the solo concerto form was first developed, up through the present day. Many major composers have contributed to the violin concerto repertoire. Traditionally a three-movement work, the violin concerto has been structured in four movements by a number of modern composers, including Dmitri Shostakovich, Igor Stravinsky, and Alban Berg. In some violin concertos, especially from the Baroque and modern eras, the violin (or group of violins) is accompanied by a chamber ensemble rather than an orchestra—for instance, in Vivaldi's L'estro armonico, originally scored for four violins, two violas, cello, and continuo, and in Allan Pettersson's first concerto, for violin and string quartet.

A Summer's Tale (Czech: Pohádka léta), Op. 29 is a tone poem for large orchestra by Josef Suk. It is scored for a large orchestra of piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 cors anglais, 2 clarinets, bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, contrabassoon, 6 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, timpani, cymbals, tam-tam, bass drum, piano, 2 harps, celesta, organ (ad lib) and strings. The work was composed between 1907 and 1909 and was premiered in Prague on 26 January 1909, by the Czech Philharmonic conducted by the dedicatee Karel Kovařovic. It was initially coolly received—–several critics charged it with being impressionistic.

Josef Suk (4 January 1874 – 29 May 1935) was a Czech composer, violinist, and Olympic silver medalist. He studied under Antonín Dvořák, whose daughter he married.

Josef Suk's Serenade for Strings in E flat major, Op. 6, was composed in 1892. While Suk was studying under Antonín Dvořák at the Prague Conservatory, Dvořák noticed a melancholy strain in much of Suk's music, and recommended he try writing some lighter and more cheerful music. Based on Dvořák's suggestion, Suk produced the Serenade for Strings. Two movements were publicly conducted by Suk in late 1893 in Tábor. The first complete performance was on 25 February 1895, at the Prague Conservatory, conducted by Antonín Bennewitz, Suk's violin teacher at the Conservatory. The Serenade soon brought Suk considerable fame and Dvořák's longtime supporter, Johannes Brahms, endorsed its publication.
