1. Alegro
2. Adagio
3. Allegro Assai

The Violin Concerto in E Major opens with an Allegro in the solid, commanding style of the Branden-burgs, with three proclamatory chords that echo persistently throughout the movement. The soloist plays in real dialogue with the orchestra; there is no rigid separation of tutli and solo. The Adagio begins and ends with the low strings stating a long, rather melancholy, ostinalo bass. Over this, the violin sings a tender song in phrases that seem endless and are virtually devoid of cadential points. The Allegro assai is one of Bach's business like finales—staid, self-assured, rather fat in instrumental texture. The movement, with its alternation of rilornello and solo, comes closer to the Vivaldi ideal of Baroque concerto writing than does the first movement.
