Things to consider

Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 appears in both full orchestra and piano reduction versions; choose the reduction for solo practice and the full score for performance with accompaniment. The chamber arrangements of works like Kol Nidrei and the Double Concerto extend these pieces to violists and clarinetists, so check the instrumentation carefully to match your ensemble. Multiple editors (Kimura, de Smet, Latham) offer different interpretive approaches, particularly in the cadenza passages, so preview sample editions if you're particular about bowings and fingerings.
