Artist: Felix Mendelssohn Title: Symphony in A Maj. / Two Concert Arias
Info: M'stro Oleg C'tani conducts the Robert-Schumann-Philharmonie Chemnitz in a new recording of the little-known revised version of the Symphony in A Major (+Italian+) as well as recordings of two unpublished concert arias. The performance of the first movement from the 1833 score of the Italian-Symphony with Mendelssohn's 1834 reworking of the last three movements is one of the first to convey the composer's latest thoughts on the A-Major Symphony as a whole. Although the first movement is unchanged the numerous And substantial alterations in the last three movements place the work in a new light reinforcing the symphonic character And large-scale motivic unity of the work while also enhancing its Italianate characteristics.
