The article discusses the Violin Concerto in D minor op. 47 that was composed by Jean Sibelius, which has earned a place in the pantheon of great musical compositions.

The author discusses other musicians in the twentieth century who have recorded Sibelius' composition including David Oistrakh, Zino Francescatti, and Isaac Stern.
