Hello my friend from afar. I love Medelssohn music. This two ones are very beatiful. I' m now in my medical office in an autumn cold and foggy day. But the music warms the soul. I hope you are enjoing the spring holydays at the beach. My best wishes for you and yours. A lot of greetings from Santiago. God and Our Lady bless you. Sincerely, Fernando . 👏🙏✝️🙏🎼🎼🇨🇱🇨🇱🇷🇴🇷🇴💐.
Thank you, dear Fernando, I'm glad Mendelssohn's music warms up the atmosphere in your office. I think we should all have a house on various parallels, move after the sun.... 🙂 Sure, I'm kidding now, it would be impossible for me, but no one is stops me from dreaming a bit .... Of course I will go to the beach again this weekend, today the temperature was 24 degrees Celsius, so it will be fine. Thank you as usual for all your good thoughts. I wish you and your family good health!
Again a very good choice of you Yulia. The Menselssohn's compositions smelling like spring. The execution is great. Wish you a warm weekend on the beach.
Thank you very much, my friend. I know that this concert has been posted several times, but not in this interpretation that I really like. Thanks again for the wishes. Yes, I will go to the beach this weekend, my leg is still suffering even though 4 months have passed since the surgery. I have to try a recovery procedure, although the sea water is still very cold. I wish you all the best!
La Sapienza musical/culinaria della nostra Grande Chef musicale Sibarit 101 coglie ancora una volta nel segno! Questo piatto musicale è a dir poco superbo! Ricordiamoci che Felix Mendelssohn era nipote del grandissimo filosofo Moses Mendelssohn il quale strinse una solidissima amicizia, che duro' tutta la vita, con Gotthold Ephraim Lessing. Come dire, sei nato in una famiglia di Genii quindi....
Thanks again, but I have to admit that although I really like his music and I recognize (partially) his genius, I don't like the man Mendelssohn. I admit that I am influenced by the Memoirs of Berlioz, who discovered a not-so-beautiful part of his aristocrat "friend" .... Moreover, despite Mendelssohn's good intentions, it seems that his "fidelity" to the writing of his great predecessors was not authentic. But I didn't know them ... 🙂..., so I'll stop here. Many friendly greetings!
It is a work of the composer in the year of 14 years old, and along with the violin concerto in D minor composed in the year of 13 years old, it can be said to be the origin of the later Mendelssohn's style. In the first movement, the world view of Mendelssohn is already floating, and the cadenza is so beautiful that it trembles. The second movement is a sweet and flowing slow movement, a music that transcends beauty. In the 3rd movement, Mendelssohn's character is also pushed to the front, and even if a radiant tune in major key sometimes appears, a moderate tune in D minor dominates after that, and the coda also closes all songs in D minor. In any case, this song, composed in the early teens of Mendelssohn, is almost complete and can be said to be a masterpiece along with the Violin Concerto in D minor.
Thank you very much. I agree with you, the sensitivity with which Mendelssohn balances two totally different instruments makes this concert a work of incomparable beauty.
German musicologist Christoph Hellmundt reconstructed the present version for full orchestra in 1999. Since then this concerto has been recorded at least 10 times.
