I created a Modern Violin Concertos Playlist based on research of Composers born after 1920. Feel free to suggest more additions of lesser known Composers not in the list here. Enjoy. :)

I would love to check this out but for some reason I can't see the list when I click on the link. Is it because of the ellipsis in the middle of the url or something?

I believe I am pretty familiar with everything up there so far, and I absolutely adore each of them! They are wonderful pieces of music. I think the 20th and 21st century have produced some really terrific concertos for violin including:

Pateras: Immediata
Dean: The Lost Art of Letter Writing
Dean: Electric Preludes
Bray: Caught in Treetops
Nishimura: After Glow
Hosokawa: Landscape III

Actually those might all be 21st century concertos but I will have to double check.

Good list so far, have you heard John Zorn's violin concerto called "Contes De Fees"?
That Zorn concerto sounds stuck in the '50s

Pateras and Electric Preludes I couldn't find on Spotify. But added the rest along with some other suggestions on the other forum.  ;)

My recommendation list of neglected 20th century violin concertos is part of my "Violin concerto Project" website (with an encyclopedia and lots of scores for free download):
