Did your music teacher spring this one on you? or did you put off learning the piece until the last minute?
As a musician, I have learned that there is no instant substitute for practice & dedication to your art. However if your music teacher sprang this one on you then it's likely that he/she believes that you are up to the challenge, so you must believe in yourself as well in order to succeed.
Try dividing the piece into parts, separating the most challenging from the simple ones. Start off by working over the most challenging ones 1st, & then once you are satisfied start to practice the concerto from start to finish.
To bring a complicated piece of music to performance standard for me it would take far more than two days.
You have quite a challenge ahead of you, I recommend that in future you give yourself ample time to learn & practice your craft. Music is an art, not a stressful sport.

If you go to a college music library you could listen to the piece, but if you have the music on tape you could listen , then play along til you get the hang of it. Other wise it is usually best to learn a phrase at a time til perfect . If it is too hard, you could learn a measure at a time till perfect. Also, if you have access to a piano, you could play a measure or phrase at a time to get hang of how it should sound then play it on the violin. If it is super hard, play it very slow , then pick up speed as you get hang of it.Hope you have time to learn it well.

There might be... you can try this out. Search for your concerto piece on mp3 and download it. Listen to it 24-7 especially while u're sleeping. Listen to it on a portable player too so u can go anywhere while still listening to it. U will soon realize it subconsciously has submerged in ur mind and u would play it much better. Try it out.

If there was, it would not be a super-tough violin piece.

oh i'm sorry i know what its like to have to quikly learn music, i play clairent. for marching band we'll get a peice of music on wednesday and have to have it memorized at the football game on friday. if you have a hard spot that is fats i suggest practing it slowly until you have it down, then it is much easier to play fast, good luck at your concert!

1). What have you learned from your all-time favorite wrestler ? ric flair, take your time in everything you do and do things at your own pace and no one elses. 2) What have you learned from your current favorite wrestler ? cm punk, that being alcohol free, drug free and tobacco free is the way to go and its cool. 3) One thing you wish you knew from your all-time fav wrestler ? ric flair, how to wrestle like he does and become a great like him. 4) One thing you wish you knew from your current favorite wrestler ? cm punk, what does cm really stand for and no bull shitt this time lol because i know punk how he likes to make up stroys about what cm means.

seriosuly if you had time, you shouldve used it~~
now take a deep breath and do it piece by piece,
for maybe half an hour only work on one part,
so its now pretty much stuck in your head
and do the othe rparts just like that
try to remeber it
and itll work......

Just start working on it, and don't overwhelm yourself...
