Abstract
This document presents research and analysis of the Concerto for Violin and Orchestra Op. 137 by Colombian composer Blas Emilio Atehortúa, a piece that does not have current research and has not been performed in over thirty years. As part of the research process, I located and consulted a variety of sources to reconstruct the history of this work. The analysis consists of an overview of the entire concerto, followed by an in-depth analysis of the first movement. By doing this, we can better understand the reasons why this work only got performed twice in the nineties and the style used by Atehortúa to compose this concerto. Furthermore, it leaves the door open for future projects, such as a modern edition, a complete analysis of the remaining three movements, and the possibility of other performances of this work.
